Re: [linux-audio-user] not quite so simple.... mandrake 9.0 +devfs help!!

ok so what does ls -l /dev/dsp0 show you? /dev/dsp should point at lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 9 Dec 16 08:02 /dev/dsp -> sound/dsp you can do this manually for testing. Just rm -rf /dev/dsp, then ln -s /dev/sound/dsp /dev/dsp. Does that work?
