I would like to play Minecraft on my FreeBSD box, so I installed games/minecraft-client. It starts, but I do not have any sound. The reason for that is that Minecraft uses ALSA and ALSA does not find any soundcards: Starting up SoundSystem... Initializing LWJGL OpenAL (The LWJGL binding of OpenAL. For more information, see http://www.lwjgl.org) AL lib: alsa.c:960: no playback cards found... AL lib: alsa.c:1017: no capture cards found... ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:4154:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such file or directory I am not sure what to do here and how to wrap my OSS system in an ALSA system. I installed audio/alsa-lib, audio/alsa-plugins and audio/alsa-utils. My asoundrc looks like this at the moment: pcm.oss { type oss device /dev/dsp } However I cannot play any MP3s via aplay. Do you have any ideas? Stephan
