1 Dunno if this is the right forum ... but here goes anyway ....

3 I've installed Gentoo on a couple of servers so far and decided to make
4 the leap and put it on my laptop, a Dell Inspiron 4150. I didn't even
5 play it safe by making it dual-boot and I've been blown away by how
6 smoothly everything is going. Except that I can't seem to get sound to
7 work.

9 The culprit seems to be
10
11 freak linux # ls -L -l /dev/dsp*
12 ls: /dev/dsp*: No such file or directory
13
14 but I don't know what to do about it.
15
16 The contents of /proc/pci and lsmod are included below my sig in case
17 that's helpful. I used genkernel to configure and build the kernel and,
18 according to my untrained eye, appropriate modules seem to be loaded.

20 Thanks!
