Hi, |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
I'm now on my iBook. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I added the following lines in my modules.conf: |
| 15 |
alias /dev/dsp dmasound_pmac |
| 16 |
alias /dev/mixer dmasound_pmac |
| 17 |
These cause the module to be loaded whenever the device is referred. |
| 18 |
Alternatively, they could be loaded at startup. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
modules.conf is automatically generated with modutils read doc to know |
| 21 |
how to do it. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Hope it helps, |
| 24 |
