Re: /dev/dsp not found: KDE/ALSA
Hi!
Is the soundcore.o module also loaded? That's a module directly from
the linux kernel (if you compile the kernel yourself: You have to
switch general sound card support to "M" (modularized), but leave all
other options off on the sound card support configuration page; if
you don't compile it yourself: This module should be part of the
kernel packages). It it at least necessary with my alsa 5.10
distribution. Just try to load it using modconf.
Cheers,
Stephan
