Hi.  I'm trying to get sound going on my NetBSD-1.2/Amiga system.  I
downloaded the audio-src11.tar.gz file found in the experimental
subdirectory, thinking that it was usable.  I applied the patches like the
insturctions said and made the kernel.  I know the patches worked because
my beep is now coming in stereo as opposed to coming from one speaker (I
have 2 speakers connected to my amiga) which is what it did before.  The
problems I encounter are the following:

   1) I cannot "make modload" (ie. load the lkm) unless I'm in single user
      mode

   2) once I `MAKEDEV', and I try `cat samp2.au > aud0' It replies:
      aud0: Device not configured.

Does anyone know why this is happening?  Is there an easy fix?  On the
same line of questioning, is this as far as amiga sound is going to go or
can we expect more (eg. a /dev/audio device, etc.)?  Thanks.

-Jose
