Try using devfs rules too.
Adding devfs rules delete /Dev/psaux !!! (so I cannot have a mouse anymore)
So, instead of devfs, I've added udev.rules and it works better.
For better, it's just means that now, alsa agree to start and I can run
alsactl restore.
But I still have no sound :-(
In mplayer, I've :
alsa-init: got device=0, subdevice=0
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1155:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed:
Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:868:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
alsa-init: playback open error: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type
Or, with OSS :
audio_setup: Can't open audio device /dev/dsp: Aucun fichier ou
répertoire de ce type
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
I think this is because the mixer device is always a recursive links
loop to itself :-(
alsamixer :
No mixer elems found
I've tried to add manually the line :
KERNEL="mixer", NAME="snd/%k"
in udev.rules but, if it change the loop for a link to snd/mixer, it
doesn't bring me sound or a mixer.
Strangely, I've a mixer in the Gnome Panel.
Thx you for your help (and thank you Luis M too)

Hi,
I'm testing here on Debian Sid, with full HAL, udev, and so one..
I've followed instructions here :
http://ccomb.free.fr/wiki/wakka.php?wiki=UsbMassStorage
remove devfs=mount from grub/menu.lst and
cd /etc/udev/rules.d; rm -f compat.rules; ln -s ../compat-full.rules
now, I don't have sound anymore :-(
alsactl restore
alsactl: load_state:1134: No soundcards found...
altought, all modules are perfectly loaded (snd_intel8x0 on my
nforce2 soundcard)
So I've putt devfs=mount again in grub, but it doesn't change anything.
Worst thing : there's somes infinites recursive loops in /dev/

As said previously on this list, like everybody I use ALSA and the
OSS emulation.
Could you please help me to make this working again ?
