RE: Help Configuring Sound

["Hurschler" <hurschler@annastift.de>]

I'm also a newbie and have a similar problem to that described below, I'm
now upgraded to Debian 3.0r1 on an Acer 500T laptop.

I use the opl3sa module with the 2.4.18-bf2.4 kernal image with no problems
i.e. all my group/rights volume settings seem ok.  When I try to load the
module in 2.4.20 with modconf I get the same message as the poster below.

"/dev/dsp: No such device"

any suggestions.  I'd like to use 2.4.20 bacause on my 233MHz machine it is
significantly faster.

Thanks,

Christof

Hi all,

Sorry for the newbie question, but I have been having a bear of a problem
configuring sound under kernel 2.4.19 for my Yamaha opl3sa3. My machine is a
NEC Direction SPT 200.

Following advice from various lists I have compiled the following as
modules:
isa-pnp
sound
oss
adlib
opl3sa2
mpu401
mss
ym3812

if I modprobe opl3sa2, the following modules seem to load without visible
error:
opl3sa2
ad1848
mpu401
sound
isa-pnp

However when I try to start any sound application, I get a "/dev/dsp: No
such device" error message. The above modules do not appear to be using any
ioports or interrupts according to /proc. dmesg says that isapnp, ad1848 and
opl3sa2 did not find any plug and play devices. It seems to me that I am not
actually successfully loading the modules even though they appear when I
lsmod.

I am new to 2.4 kernels, but I was under the impression that the isapnp
module would take care of the ioports and interrupts.

Any suggestions?

Yours,

Streph
