In my never ending saga of difficulties with ALSA, here is some info as to
what is going wrong.
Whenever KDE starts it gives me a message that /dev/dsp doesn`t exist.
This happens in root & my local usr. I can open and run a bunch of sound
programs, all of which act as if they were playing sound or processing
sound, but no sound comes out of either my internal intel i810 sound card
(desknote laptop running redhat 7.3), nor my M-Audio Quattro (which is
what I am trying to get running). Below is some info, my modules.conf
file, and other stuff for your knowledge to register :)
thanks, todd
