Hi, I'm trying to get sound to work with a Ensoniq PCI Audio card. I believe it uses the ES1371 chipset, so it's only supported under the OSS drivers, which I have downloaded a trial copy of. (I'm using FBSD 3.1) Unfortunately, I see that /dev/dsp points to /dev/dspstat, which doesn't exist. I looked through the /dev/MAKEDEV script and didn't see where this file gets created. I also looked briefly though the generic sound code in /usr/sys/i386/config/snd or where ever it is. I didn't find mention of where this dspstat file gets created either. It doesn't seem to get created under Linux, and I'm not familiar with it. I even tried symlinking dsp to dsp0 as under LInux, but that *really* didn't work! :) Can anyone tell me what to do about /dev/dsp and what it should point to? Should permissions be open to users, say 755? And how do I create /dev/dspstat, or should I symlink dsp to some other device? Thanks for your help! David S.
