Oldham" X-Sender: oldhamb@pcOldhamB.Res.carleton.edu To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: linux audio vs freebsd audio Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG So I've downloaded a linux sound player to use under X, compiled it fine, start it up, and it opens up nicely. The only problem being the error "bind: Invalid argument," which I'm guessing means that it's not binding to the audio devices that I'm using. (Obviously, no sound actually gets played). I'm using the standard FBSD sound drivers (not Luigi's), and am wondering if someone knows whether or not I could simply create a sym link to the appropriate drivers, and if so, what the links should be named? I _think_ that the device that should be used under FBSD is going to be /dev/dsp, which is a link to /dev/dsp0. any ideas?
