One thing to check is do you have any /dev/nv* devices? There was a thread in the forums on this which has a script for recreating them and another thread on this list in which I posted it. On Wed, 12 Oct 2005, Jorge Almeida wrote: I can't find out what I'm doing wrong. I have a nvidia ca

[gentoo-user] alsa config problems

Yup, that's the problem - why I don't know either and searching didn't turn up any answers other than "it's broke". I used the script to create them and it worked. On Wed, 12 Oct 2005, Bob Sanders wrote: On Wed, 12 Oct 2005 8:57:59 -0400 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On a new system I built
