I am running the 10.2b1 and after rebooting I have no sound,

Better asked on the cooker list. You shouldn't be usin cooker
without also monitoring the cooker ML, changelog, and bugzilla as
a minimum. Anyhow,
IME, a week or so ago I needed to install 'aumix' and run it to
reset the sliders from -0-. Previously all that was needed was to
watch with cooker updates was that Kmix didn't mute. IIRC, a
kernel or KDE update did me in.
OTOH, a search of the 'expert' archive might be useful. A
recent discussion, USB and Sound problems on 10.1 not on 10.0
revealed that Theo (no relative of mine) got sound back by runnin
'alsaconf'. IIRC, he got USB back too
I implore you tho to research first. Specially the cooker,
CHRPM ML archives, and bugzilla
As to /dev/dsp, aumix ... mine on current 10.2 is
tom # ll /dev/dsp
crw-rw 1 tom audio 14, 3 Jan 29 14:46 /dev/dsp
tom # aumix -q

I never needed 'alsaconf', but you should run 'draksound' an
follow the suggestions.
Advice; since you've got 10.2b1 you've probly got broadband an
cooker media sources. Update daily an contribute back to the
lists, bugzilla what you can. Often that can be just stayin
current an votin for bugs already reported, but not yet resolved.
newbie to guru input. Don't be too quick tho, often bugs are
fixed before the community even reacts with bugzilla's or posts.
Sometimes not ;)
