Alsa and OSS module autoloading

[HighwayStar]

Hi.

I just emerged my system now and I use ALSA.

I edited the file /etc/modules.d/alsa to suit my needs and I also edited /etc/devfsd.conf because I use devfsd with the new device names. The problem is the following:

When the system boots, the ALSA modules are loaded. But, when I look at /dev/sound, there ain't any *dsp device, only midi-related devices. However, I enabled all the OSS-related stuff in the files I mentioned earlier. I even tried to use devfsd togheter with PAM but it caused other weird problems.

So now I have to manually load the snd-pcm-oss and snd-mixer-oss modules. If I put them in /etc/modules.autoload, I get error messages during bootup.

Can you help me please?

did you load those modules at boot runlevel or default ?

I think you should try boot..
