I've been playing with DEVFS and the SLICE code. I ran into a problem with running RealAudio 5.0 (Linux) which was that it likes to look at the sound devices without a unit number at the end (ie. /dev/sndstat instead of /dev/sndstat0). The DEVFS entries are only made with the unit number appended. I modified the snd & pcm drivers such that if the unit is "0" then also make the DEVFS entries for this device without the unit number appended. This and ownership changes of the devices lets me run RealAudio with DEVFS. Should DEVFS make these devices (MAKEDEV did)? Should these be made as a sym-link and can DEVFS make a sym-link? BTW, I haven't got to the vn device, but should soon. Doug A. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
