Sound device not working
So when i boot into X i get this message
Sound server informational message device /dev/dsp can't be opened (no such device) the sound server will continue using the null output device I reinstalled ALSA, which worked just fine to get sound enabled on slackware 9.1. The Control Center recognizes that i have a sound card present and what it is. I also installed a soundblaster card that i had laying around and the appropriate drivers for that still to no avail. I've read elsewhere that disabling arts might help, but I've no idea how to do that. OS: Slackware 10.0 Mobo: ASUS a7n266-vm Proc: XP 2600+ RAM: 512 MB @ PC2700 |
So does /dev/dsp exist and what are the permissions that are set on it? If the permissions are 660 you can either add yourself to the audio group or change the permissions to 666.
chmod 666 /dev/dsp If it doesn't exist, create it with mknod -m 666 /dev/dsp c 14 3 you may also need to make /dev/mixer mknod -m 666 /dev/mixer c 14 0 |
permissions and groups were fine, both devices already exist.
