I was using FreeBSD 4.8 and 'device pcm' in my kernel config file, worked great. I've completely re-installed with 5.1R and recompiled my kernel with 'device pcm'. Unfortunately sound doesn't work. I no longer have a /dev/snd0 device - I think I had one before... how do I make devices in 5.1R??? MAKEDEV is no longer available... and section 9.5 of the FreeBSD manual says: "If you are running FreeBSD 5.0 or later you can safely skip this section. These versions use devfs(5) to allocate device nodes transparently for the user" I've written the -questions list and they told me to try wrinting here. What do I do? Thanks, Matt
