Greetings: I just installed FreeBSD 4.2. I am now looking to get sound and my cd player working. I have tried to use a couple of cd-players in X, but keep getting the message : (in this example form xcdplayer) open: : Device not configured How do I setup my cd-player under FreeBSD? Do these cdplayer programs default to trying to use /dev/cdrom (which was the case in Linux)? If so, how do I work around this. Also, what permissions are needed to allow a 'normal' user the correct access? I also need to setup sound support in general. I know that under Linux my soundcard (Ensoniq AudioPCI) used the es1370 driver. Under FreeBSD I have been getting a message from one program saying : cannot open output file /dev/dsp: permission denied I have looked in my copy of 'The Complete FreeBSD' , but have found nothing that helps me get my sound working. Any help is appreciated. Thomas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
