Hello,
today I read an entry in the FAQ's section "Systemadministration"
(actually I translated it into German) and have some strange feeling
about if this entry would satisfy a questioner.
I have to confess that I do not know details (i.e. anything) about
sound devices and that is the reason, why (after reading the answer) I
still have the feeling that I don't know how to create /dev/snd0:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I can't create the snd0 device!
A: The command to create the devices for the sound card is:
# cd /dev
# sh MAKEDEV snd0
However, this does not make a device named /dev/snd0. Instead, it creates
devices named mixer0, audio0, dsp0, and others. Running the command is
still necessary to add sound devices, however.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would have done a send-pr, but I am not sure, if I probably just did
not understand the answer.
Dirk
