Hi I've been trying to get my head around sound. I've recompiled the kernel, 2.4.18 powerpc, making sure that the soundcore module is included. I've created a symlink cdrom > /dev/hdc in /dev. I've made myself a member of group audio. I've chown'ed the cdrom in /dev to group audio. /dev/dsp is also in group audio.
Whenever, I load KDE 3.3.1 I get an error "device /dev/dsp doesn't exist" (but it does). When I try to play a CD using Xmms it can't seem to read the Audio CD and suggests I make sure I have the requisite permissions (which I have). Any help would be appreciated Regards Clive
