I spent forever and a year reading all I could in the archives about
this problem... but nothing turned out very well.

For history, I've been working in BSD for about 4 or 5 months now, I'm
pretty fresh to UNIX, and even moreso to system admin. I have a limited
c++ programming experience, but I know my way around.

I updated to FreeBSD 3.2-current from 2.8-current today with no
problems. Afterwards, I decided it was about time I got sound working so
I can impress my friends and enjoy being out of winslug.

Here's the kicker though... I added the lines
{
device pcm0
device es0
}

to my custom kernel, and /tried/ to sh MAKEDEV pcm0 - as per the sound
how-to - but trying to make the node just returns an error, that there
is no such device.

BUT dmesg shows devices pcm1 and es1 initializing on boot.

I tried making a node for pcm1 and got the same result as before.

when attempting to use mixer, it reports:
"/dev/mixer: device not configured, [do you mean pcm1?]"

so I pointer mixer to pcm1... and got  the same message, minus the "do
you mean..."

I'm exhausted, and out of ideas. Any obvious flaws?

Please mail any help you can give to shocker@ionet.net
