Package: libsdl-mixer1.2 Version: 1.2.6-3 I have udev, that places "sequencer" device to /dev/snd/seq. Access to the device file autoloads snd-seq kernel module. I don't have neither /dev/sequencer device, nor symlink.
When I start game gcompris, I see following error message: open /dev/sequencer: No such file or directory I traced the problem to the fact the shared library libSDL_mixer- 1.2.so.0.2.4 has "/dev/sequencer" path hardcoded. Can the library check existence of "/dev/sequencer", then "/dev/snd/seq" and only then fail? This is my understanding of the solution according to following page: http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/MultipleUSBAudioDevices Could well be I am wrong and the solution should be totally different. -- Arieh
