I have two sound cards (emu10k1 and via82xx) using Alsa. Both modules

Do I need to create the devices manually? If so, where can I find out
how to create them properly?

I never had 2 sound cards in machine, but I'll try to help...


in case u are using devfs (gentoo standard) devices are
created "on the fly" by kernel.

So the reason why u haven't device for second card
is probably because something went wrong.
It's not a problem to make device using mknod command,
but it probably wouldn't work anyway.

major (sometimes also minor) number u can find in
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt

minor number is driver specific, so if info in devices.txt
is not sufficient, u have to go through it's doc or sources

First I would test the cards alone, log the output from
dmesg, lspci ... and compare it later when both cards
are installed.
Do not forget to modify /etc/modules.d appropriately
for two cards.
