I noticed that my audio wasn't working any more (on Debian 1.3 bo).
Any hints to how to get it working again are appreciated. (Did running
2.0.33 finally catch up to me? I don't know.)
# bplay bplay ~/debian-mail.au
bplay: /dev/dsp: No such device or address
# cat ~/debian-mail.au > /dev/audio
bash: /dev/audio: No such device or address
# mtvp file.mpg
Device busy or sampling rate not supported (muting): No such device or address
I get the same sort of error trying to start nas (which is what I usually use)
bash-2.01# /etc/init.d/nas start
Starting the Network Audio System
Fatal server error:
could not create audio connection block info
When I call `au' explicitely:
bash-2.01# strace /usr/X11R6/bin/au

open("/dev/dsp", O_RDWR) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or address)
open("/dev/pcaudio", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
write(2, "\nFatal server error:\n", 21

The dsp device is there:
bash-2.01# ls -l /dev/dsp
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 Apr 14 08:50 /dev/dsp
The `pcaudio' wasn't (although I don't remember it ever being there)
bash-2.01# ls -l /dev/pcaudio
ls: /dev/pcaudio: No such file or directory
bash-2.01# ./MAKEDEV pcaudio
bash-2.01# ls -l /dev/pcaudio
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 13, 4 Apr 15 11:43 /dev/pcaudio
bash-2.01# rm /dev/dsp
bash-2.01# cd /dev
bash-2.01# ./MAKEDEV dsp
bash-2.01# ls -l dsp
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 Apr 15 11:43 dsp
I still get an error after creating /dev/pcaudio or recreating /dev/dsp
bash-2.01# strace /usr/X11R6/bin/au

open("/dev/dsp", O_RDWR) = -1 ENXIO (No such device or address)
