ok, making progress. |
75 |
|
76 |
1. In order to install sox (pkg doesn't have the dependancy), I had to |
77 |
install sys-kernel/linux-extras. Once linux-extras was installed, sounds |
78 |
started working. |
79 |
|
80 |
What's in the extras - obviously some sort of an .so library that is needed |
81 |
for sound to work. Could you explain what this is? Apparently this stuff |
82 |
is automagically in other distros. |
83 |
|
84 |
2. Still can't get the cdplayer to work. On 2.4.4 kernels, the cdroms are |
85 |
/dev/srn - in my case 0&1, but the cdplayer gets "no disk found" and does |
86 |
not play. |
87 |
|
88 |
Any clues. |
