Hi Jules; there is a lot of documentation about masked packages on
gentoo.wiki.com and on gentoo-handbook but if you want to unmask this
package you can edit the file /etc/portage/package.keywords and insert
the line
>=media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.10 ~x86
if x86 is your machine arch ...
good luck.
I used mknod in local.start. That seems to have fixed the problem.
Side note: a 2.1.11 kernel that I had lying around created the devices
correctly. I only had to do this for 2.1.13.

The only problem with that is that the devices are created well after
