Hello,

I recently went through the exercise to get rat running under FreeBSD
4.5 RC 3.  I found that rat was trying to send certain mixer-related
IOCTLs to the file descriptor it opened for the audio device, instead
of opening the mixer and sending them to the mixer device.

Once I hacked the code to open the mixer device and write these IOCTLs
to the mixer device, things worked.

However, I'm sure rat was working under FreeBSD-stable until a couple
months ago.  I'm wondering if the sound driver previously allowed
sending these mixer IOCTLs (such as SOUND_MIXER_WRITE_RECSRC) to the
audio device?  In other words, did the sound driver change?

[My tutors] got bored sooner than I, and laid down a general rule
that all statements about languages had to be in a higher level
language.  I thereupon asked in what level of language that rule was
formulated.  I got a very bad report.    -- J. R. Lucas
