Re: /dev/mixer missing
Thanks for your replies!!
I don't know if I'm missing something for the 2.4.2 kernel - I updated
everything to get the 2.4.0 kernel work (where the sound worked a little bit - I
could play CD's, but the volume was VERY low - because I didn't get the mixer to
work, but at least I could hear *something* ....)
For the change to 2.4.2 I just updated the modutils to 2.4.2-1, nothing else.
I don't know about anything I'm missing.
here is something from 'dmesg'
.....
Mar 26 19:32:50 laptop kernel: Adding Swap: 160608k swap-space (priority -1)

and here are all my modules loaded so far:

Any guesses??
P.S.:
linking /dev/mixer to /dev/mixer1 didn't change anything - I still get "wmmixer
: Unable to open mixer device '/dev/mixer'"
