I was using the freeBSD hand book accomplish this task. I have on board sound, and added the option: options PNPBIOS into the kernel, as the handbook said, and restarted my system. The kernel loaded but I had no sound. When I start X, KDE gives me the following message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Device not configured) The sound server will continue, using the null output device I've tried going into /dev and using the command MAKEDEV /dev/dsp; that didn't work. I also decided to try MAKEDEV dsp, thinking that maybe since I was in the directory it didn't want me to specify /dev/dsp. Both of these attempts told me that file: dev/dsp do not exist, but when I looked in the /dev directory, I did see a dsp file. Can some one help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?. I've attached my dmesg at the bottom of this email. Thanx.
