Subject:   Configuring sound
Message-ID:  <F41WtIIZS2TRqf69aZb00000006@hotmail.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I need help configuring my sound. I was using the freeBSD hand book 
accomplish this task. I have on board sound, and added the option:

options PNPBIOS

into the kernel, as the handbook said, and restarted my system. The kernel 
loaded but I had no sound. When I start X, KDE gives me the following 
message:

Error while initializing the sound driver:
device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Device not configured)
The sound server will continue, using the null output device

I've tried going into /dev and using the command MAKEDEV /dev/dsp; that 
didn't work. I also decided to try MAKEDEV dsp, thinking that maybe since I 
was in the directory it didn't want me to specify /dev/dsp. Both of these 
attempts told me that file: dev/dsp do not exist, but when I looked in the 
/dev directory, I did see a dsp file. Can some one help me figure out what 
I'm doing wrong?. I've attached my dmesg at the bottom of this email. Thanx. 
Desmond
