Looks like everything is working though I haven't actually heard sound yet --I'm about 60 miles away from the laptop.

no /dev/dsp.x
I searched the list archive, but I didn't see anything specific to this question. Dell Latitude C600, running 5.2-BETA from 11/24/2003... I didn't notice until I started up KDE that I had no /dev/dsp of any kind in my /dev directory. I mount_nfs'd /usr/src and /usr/obj from my adjacent desktop Dell Optiplex (running same OS and build date), installed the kernel, installed world, mergemaster'd and rebooted. Still no /dev/dsp (or /dev/ dsp.x) on the Latitude laptop (they do exist on the Optiplex --which has working sound in KDE). The desktop with the working sound had KDE built from sources, the laptop's KDE environment was installed by building instant-workstation. The laptop has a sound_maestro3 card and I have the .ko loaded for it (and sound_pcm). Both machines have device pcm in the kernel. Appreciate any guidance.

You can't force the driver to detect your soundcard if the driver doesn't detect it :-) If you have a supported sound card and are loading the correct driver, then the device will be probed when you load the driver (at boot, after boot, whenever), and the device node will be created at that time if the probe is successful.
