Hi,

I did understand the lines at the end of cat >/dev/sndstat output, but
there is no /proc/asound directory. I am using Debian GNU/Linux 2.0 with
kernel 2.0.36. 
Is there anybody on the list who can tell me why there is no sound,
although the card is detected and all devices are unmuted with xamixer and
amixer?
I have also compiled a kernel with the OSS/Free drivers and with it I
can play music (mp3, cds, wav, midi). 
So what's wrong!
