When the oss compatibility modules are loaded, a number of OSS-compatibility devices appear under devfs. Unfortunately, /dev/audio is missing. Yet, if one creates /dev/audio manually with mknod (major 14, minor 4) it works fine.
This has been reported with snd-card-ens1370 and snd-card-cs4236. under 0.9.0beta4 and 0.9.0beta7, respectively. Is this a bug, and if so, will it be fixed, and if so, will it be fixed soon? Should I work on this? -- Thomas Hood jdthood@thanatos:~$ sudo lsmod | grep ^snd snd-pcm-oss 34272 0 (autoclean) snd-mixer-oss 8540 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss] snd-synth-opl3 8292 0 (autoclean) snd-seq-instr 4144 0 (autoclean) [snd-synth-opl3] snd-seq-midi-emul 4352 0 (autoclean) [snd-synth-opl3] snd-ainstr-fm 1300 0 (autoclean) [snd-synth-opl3] snd-seq-oss 22080 0 (autoclean) snd-seq-midi-event 2792 0 (autoclean) [snd-seq-oss] snd-seq 34512 1 (autoclean) [snd-synth-opl3 snd-seq-instr snd-seq-midi-emul snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event] snd-card-cs4236 5104 0 (autoclean) snd-opl3 4996 0 (autoclean) [snd-synth-opl3 snd-card-cs4236] snd-hwdep 3392 0 (autoclean) [snd-opl3] snd-cs4236 10064 0 (autoclean) [snd-card-cs4236] snd-cs4231 12864 0 (autoclean) [snd-card-cs4236 snd-cs4236] snd-pcm 44384 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231] snd-timer 8488 0 (autoclean) [snd-seq snd-opl3 snd-cs4231 snd-pcm] snd-mpu401-uart 2512 0 (autoclean) [snd-card-cs4236] snd-rawmidi 11424 0 (autoclean) [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 3744 0 (autoclean) [snd-synth-opl3 snd-seq-oss snd-seq snd-opl3 snd-rawmidi] snd 22956 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-synth-opl3 snd-seq-instr snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-card-cs4236 snd-opl3 snd-hwdep snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231 snd-pcm snd-timer snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device] jdthood@thanatos:~$ ls -l /dev/sound total 0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Dec 31 1969 ./ drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Dec 31 1969 ../ crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 10 Dec 31 1969 dmfm crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 Dec 31 1969 dsp crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 0 Dec 31 1969 mixer crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 1 Dec 31 1969 sequencer crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 8 Dec 31 1969 sequencer2 _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
