Check /var/log/messages to see if your sound card is detected. If not, you must correct that first. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area gentoo stable - ext3 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] sound question
In /etc/devfsd.conf there should be some entries for sound such as /dev/sound, etc. - or at least they will show up once you install the drivers. They did for me with my CMI built into the motherboard. It looks like it will be /dev/sound.

Re: [gentoo-user] sound question
Rick, check out /etc/devfsd.conf as it should tell you what devices will be linked to the sound card. In mine there are a list of devices used. Also check man devfs and devfs.conf.
