You shouldn't have to compile in Linux compat mode to get that to work; our /dev/dsp is completely compatible with Linux's. The only time you really need to build a Linux binary should be if you have to link to a library that you don't have the source to, or if you're cross-compiling for a Linux target. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
