Dear All, I still cannot get my sound working with my printing and both zip drives. I have LM8.1 and have been dealing with this for a long while. Could this be a devfs problem? Maybe I need to do the mknod for my zip drive, also. How would I do that for a zip drive that is sda 4? What would the numbers be at the end of the command line for a sda 4? Thanks for any help. Sincerely, Marcia
