Re: [gentoo-user] Can't get ALSA OSS Emulation to work

[Raphael Melo de Oliveira Bastos Sales <raphael.melo21@gmail.com>]

Thanks for the attention. I did both ways and I still get error messages like;

Enemy Territory:
/dev/dsp: Input/output error
Could not mmap /dev/dsp

and

Quake 3:
/dev/dsp: Broken pipe
Could not toggle.

cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp  also does nothing

Maybe some clues, I don't know:

# cat /proc/asound/cards

While I'm at it, how does the -D option of alsamixer works? When I put
alsamixer -D /dev/mixer it doesn't work either. I'm I doing it wrong?

Sorry for sending such a big message, but this problem is really annoying...

Thanks again for the attention,

Raphael
