Hi all,
 
 I've just installed gentoo 1.4 for the first time, so I'm not
very familiar with the system yet, and obviously I've still got
a few problems. Let's begin with the sound, when I run sound-using
applications (as root), I get error messages of the '/dev/sound/dsp
not found' variety. When I check, indeed there's no /dev/sound/dsp,
but there is a /dev/sound/dspW. I suppose that's the device I need
to use instead, so I made a symbolic link /dev/sound/dsp to it, but
to no avail. IIRC in my previous linux install (debian woody) the 
sound device was /dev/dsp, and I got that one working fine (after 
fixing some permission problems). Any ideas what causes these problems?
