It has several bugs, among which this one: - it fails to create /dev/dsp (eventhough it creates /dev/dsp1...), without giving a notice - default system sound apps have an endianness problem, so they don’t give a proper error message. The solution is to [MAKEDEV audio] manually and rebuild CCRMA sndlib, and sound will work perfectly. Best, Stanko . [[ This message was sent via the linuxppc-dev mailing list.
