when Gnome 2.2 cranks up after I log in, I get an error message
saying "Couldn't open mixer device /dev/sound/mixer".
perusing /dev, I see a /dev/sound directory, but no /dev/sound/mixer
I compiled all the sound modules into my kernel and diddled about
with the /etc/devs/conf.d/alsa adding entries to try to force it to add
/dev/sound/mixer, etc but no avail
Are you sure you compiled in everything? What is the output of
grep MIXER /boot/config-`uname -r`
