RE: [Cooker] dev sound links are not created upon bootup
I agree. Also does anyone know if Mandrake has support for any of the Promise ATA controller cards? I was thinking of getting a ATA 100 controller card to get my system up to speed. /MattB -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Warren E.

Re: [Cooker] dev sound links are not created upon bootup
While that is a workaround, that shouldn't be the Mandrake response to the problem. Shouldn't devfsd save these links if they are created once? Then there should be an RPM which creates them initially, and devfsd needs to be configured to save them.

Re: [Cooker] dev sound links are not created upon bootup
Just disable devfsd with devfsd=nomount in /etc/lilo or leave it out alltogether (I work like this). All apps still use the older device files anyway or are compatible to the old way. This way you won't have to rebuild the links everytime. Devfsd delivers more greave than it's worth.

RE: [Cooker] dev sound links are not created upon bootup
I have this problem too. I put these lines in my /etc/rc.d/rc.local ln -s /dev/sound/audio /dev/audio ln -s /dev/sound/dsp /dev/dsp ln -s /dev/sound/dspW /dev/dspW ln -s /dev/sound/mixer /dev/mixer ln -s /dev/sound/sequencer /dev/sequencer ln -s /dev/sound/sequencer2 /dev/sequencer2 Mandrake 8.1 does this also btw. I have no idea why. But putting these lines in the rc.local fixes it temporarely. /MattB -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Salane King Sent: Saturday, January 05, 2002 6:47 AM To: Cooker Subject: [Cooker] dev sound links are not created upon bootup Every time I have to reboot the /dev/dsp mixer audio etc are missing. I have to ln them to /dev/sound/. to get sound to work. How do i fix this permanantly?
