This is my /etc/modules.d/alsa
# Alsa 0.9.X kernel modules' configuration file.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-sound/alsa-driver/files/alsa-modules.$
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
##
## IMPORTANT:
## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s)
## and then run `update-modules' command.
## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info.
##
## ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
## OSS/Free portion
## alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## OSS/Free portion
## alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
##
# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
## OSS/Free portion - card #2
## alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
## alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
## alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
options snd snd_cards_limit=1
and when I run
amixer set Mixer 100 unmute
I get
Segmentation fault
and when i only run

| nope. Gentoo uses devfs, so they will be created when you load the driver modules. My suggestion would be to uninstall the old drivers and follow the directions which are found at the url I posted earlier in this thread. This method should have you up and running in minutes.. well did for me anyway when I tried it ;) |

Are you using DevFSD? Since most gentoo users do, then I'm assuming you are.
if so, then you would not have to add them manually (with the old "mknod /dev/dsp c 14 3" method)
- make sure you REMOVE kernel support for your card, it should be run as a module - this is the best/easiest way to work with devfsd.
- check your devfsd.conf file to make sure everything is ok:
- look at your "/etc/modules.devfs" - there should be aliases listed for dsp and mixer
- after any changes you make in the devfs remember to run "/etc/init.d/devfsd start" or reboot
- still having problems? try re-emerge alsa if you reboot but you still dont have /dev/dsp.
-with devfs you can FORCE the /dev/dsp to be created. simply add the following to "/etc/devfsd.conf":
| Code: | LOOKUP dsp MODLOAD
LOOKUP sound MODLOAD
REGISTER sound/.* MKOLDCOMPAT
Unregister sound/*. RMOLDCOMPAT |
let me know if any/none of this helped.
tip:
Another thing I did (after alsa was up and running) was to do a search for all occurences of "/dev/dsp" in ANY file and replaced it with the actual destination link that it pointed to (/dev/sound/dsp). Newer programs "should" want to use the /dev/sound/dsp file, but most dont yet.
cheers,

You've probably found a bug in XMMS, please visit
