Hi folks, I did an update world last night with a --sync that was a couple of days old because it took me several nights to get all the stuff (deltup didn't have most of the diffs, so I had to download the whole tarballs).
After emerging, compiling, installing all of it, I did an etc-update. Among other things, I merged the new udev rules and rebooted to get them into effect. Sound is gone. Artsd complains that there is no /dev/dsp - and rightly so. All sound-related devices under /dev are gone. There are a couple of devices under /dev/snd: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/snd $ ls -l total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 0 Feb 11 21:14 controlC0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 24 Feb 11 21:14 pcmC0D0c crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 16 Feb 11 21:14 pcmC0D0p crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 25 Feb 11 21:14 pcmC0D1c crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Feb 11 21:14 timer lsmod reveals that the relevant modules are loaded: mii 5888 1 sis900 snd_intel8x0 32224 0 snd_ac97_codec 84092 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus 3200 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm 83588 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 24836 1 snd_pcm snd 52196 4 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 11144 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm If I recollect correctly that's about what I had before. Now, what did I wrong? ... and equally important: What do I do to get my noise back? ;-) Uwe -- Why do consumers keep buying products they will live to curse? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
