The problem was /dev/snd/ devices weren't created. I don't know where in the b?lfs process this is supposed to take place, but my MAKEDEV-1.7 does not make these devices. there is a script included with alsa-driver-1.0.13 called snddevices which i was able to use to create the /dev/snd devices for alsa. -- /me -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
