LinuxQuestions.org - [Newbie] [FreeBSD] Error while initializing the sound driver

Hello all

I installed FreeBSD today (I fast never used Unix/Linux OS before) and this was quite simple. But I still have a problem with my sound card. When KDE starts up, I see the following message box :

Code:

Sound server informational message:

Error while initializing the sound driver:

device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such file or directory)

The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

Indeed, I have no sound and no directory or file called dsp in the /dev/ directory. I tried to solve the problem myself by recompiling the kernel with "device pcm" but it did not work :

Code:

Error: device "pcm" is unknown

I also tried with "device sound" and i could recomplie the kernel, but I have still the same error. I would like to copy-paste the lsmod result but when I type lsmod (with the root account) I just see :

Code:

lsmod: Command not found.

Code:

alsaconfig

returns also

Code:

Command not found

I certainly missed something, but I do not know what.

NB : I installed FreeBSD Release 5.4 and during the installation, i did not select any packet (except kde and bash), so I have very few programs installed.

Thanks a lot for your help, I've searched a solution with google, but was unsuccessful.
