Like others I have been trying to get the sound working on FC2. When I bring up KDE I now find this message : " Error while initializing sound driver: " device /dev/dsp can't be opened (no such device) " Sound server will continue using Null output device" When I do a listing of that file (as root), I see that it is there?? [root@mach3 dev]# ls -al dsp crw------- 1 ve1drg root 14, 3 Feb 23 17:02 dsp [root@mach3 dev]# ls -al dsp* crw------- 1 ve1drg root 14, 3 Feb 23 17:02 dsp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 18 19:07 dsp0 -> dsp crw------- 1 ve1drg root 14, 19 Feb 23 17:02 dsp1 crw------- 1 ve1drg root 55, 0 Feb 23 17:02 dsp56k Anyone give me a hand on getting the sound going again on KDE?? And how would this happen that this sound driver would appear to disappear? -- Ted Gervais Coldbrook, Nova Scotia Canada.
