Folks, I submitted this to the gentoo-user ml several weeks ago and received no response. Please take a look and let me know what I'm missing. For those not familiar with Gentoo, it uses devfs, which I suspect may be part of the problem.
[Begin original message] Has anyone made S/PDIF work on Gentoo v1.4? I've looked at alsa's website, googled, mythtv.org, and gentoo.org. Among other wanderings. Nothing clicks. Apparently I should have /dev/snd/pcmC0D2p listed. It's not, although alsa works fine for analog (/dev/snd/pcmC0D{0,1}p). Does anyone know what parameter I would pass to which module to make it work? I've modinfo'd most of the snd modules, nothing looks right (or works). Perhaps it's a modules.conf alias? I tried OSS emulation (for /dev/sound/adsp), no go. Here's my HW setup: MB: GA-7VAX Cable: RC-style digital to input of stereo Add-on: S/PDIF out (fiber/copper) btw - ALSA docs suggest it should work, but assume /dev/snd/pcmC0D2p is present.
