I have unsuccessfully tried to run a few different mixers in X. The reponses from two of them are included below. The fact that entirely seperate apps gave me similar errors makes me think that I must have forgotten something. After reading the docs I am still scratching my head. The 'device not configured' error caused me to look in /dev to see if my /dev/mixer was there. It was. I ran '/dev/MAKEDEV all' to no avail. I have the snd0 and sb options compiled into my kernel. I was able to play real audio files and change the volume within real audio. I hope this means that my kernel is correctly set up for sound. Is there supposed to be some sort of 'ioctl' option compiled into the snd0 and sb parts of my kernel? Perhaps the better question is, "What am I missing?"
