I've installed the alsa drivers and can play and record sound ok, but
/dev/sequencer cannot be opened - I get the ENODEV no such device error.
I have a Realtek ALC650 audio on motherboard and RedHat 8.0 (which
misconfigures the audio in
/etc/modules.conf as
alias sound-slot-0 via82cxxx_audio, a known bug). From the Realtek
website I was directed to use the alsa drivers and to set my
/etc/modules.conf with
alias char-major-116 snd
options snd major=116 cards_limit=1
#--- Via8233 -------------------------------
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
options snd-via82xx index=0 id="Via8233"
#-----------------------------------------------
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
#=================================
looking at snddevices it will have created /dev/sequencer with these values
mknod -m 666 /dev/sequencer c 14 1
but here I lose the trail - is there a fundamental problem here - am I
talking to some missing hardware?
I configured built and installed (the driver with --with-sequencer=yes)
alsa-driver-0.9.0rc5
alsa-lib-0.9.0rc6
alsa-utils-0.9.0rc6
and ran snddevices
from config.log of alsa-driver
$ ./configure --with-sequencer=yes --with-debug=detect
#define CONFIG_SND_VERSION "0.9.0rc5"
$cat junk /dev/sequencer
cat: /dev/sequencer: No such device
#/sbin/lspci -v -v

Any insights would be much appreciated, as Rosegarden refuses to run at
all unless it can talk to /dev/sequencer.
