I saw this and have been faoolowing the thread myself as i have sound problems. Mandrake 8.1/82 kde2.2.2/3.0 and no sound at all except on the bttv card for TV. I also had previously chmod 666 the /dev/sound and not looked since. So it came up as : crw------- 1 kantoine audio 14, 4 Jan 1 1970 audio crw------- 1 kantoine audio 14, 3 Jan 1 1970 dsp crw------- 1 kantoine audio 14, 5 Jan 1 1970 dspW crw------- 1 kantoine audio 14, 0 Jan 1 1970 mixer crw------- 1 kantoine audio 14, 1 Jan 1 1970 sequencer crw------- 1 kantoine audio 14, 8 Jan 1 1970 sequencer I then chmod /dev/sound 666 took a look and all were crw-rw-rw- then logged out and back in again, not reboot, looked again and they were all 600. Looks like you have to set it in /etc/devfsd.conf, will have to find out how. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'skippy' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061 Australia PH:61733002161 Retired Geriatric, Sometime Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
