[SOLVED] missing /dev/dss

honzzz · 05-29-2011, 01:26 PM

I use a program that reads data from /dev/dss - which is supposed to be sound input device. But after last update /dev/dss disappeared.

Is there any way how to get it back? I updated many packages - one of them was udev - that's the one I suspect - is there any way how to set it up so that I could access /dev/dss?

I use Arch Linux / Xfce, udev version is 171-1.

Thank you for your answers.

I got advice to modprobe snd-pcm-oss and snd-seq-oss which solved the problem
