Hello thanks for your aid.

In my dmesg:
	NetBSD 1.6 (GENERIC) # Sun Sep 8 17:51:40 2002
	NEC Mobilepro 780 (NEC VR4121 rev1.2 168.521MHz)
	...
	vraiu0 at vr4102ip0 addr 0x0x0b000160-017f
	audio0 at vraiu0: half duplex
	.....
And (like user root ):
	cat /netbsd > /dev/audio  :No sound
	cat /chimes.wav > /dev/audio1 : Message - device not configured.
Devices are:
	/dev/audio, audio0, audio1, audio1, audio2, audio3 (audio as a link to
audio0)
	/dev/audioct1, audioct10, audioct11, audioct12, audioct13


Audio in WCE sound works correctly  ....
I have tested the sound, and I do not understand as if the sound is
recognized by kernel is not listened to absolutely anything, but the computer
reads the file and it does not give error message..., does not happen
anything to me that can hacer. In this same tread, in a previous message

miles Nordin says:

I believe that the problem can be in '/dev/mixer', if the volume this
extinguishing is not listened to anything. I have proven several programs to
fit to the volume (mixerctl, aumix, cam, xmix) and all give error in device.
In '/dev' they exist: 'dev/mixer, mixer0, mixer1, mixer2, mixer3' and the
permissions estan well. (It seems me stranger who the group to that the
devices belong audio and to mixer is "whell" and not "audio".)
I am without ideas. ...  :-((

The certain thing is that it is a great disadvantage of not having sound in
the M780.

A greeting and thanks again.
