i have compiled support for my cmi8738 (asus a7v266e onboard sound) directly into the kernel. following the instructions in the desktop guide i have to do "/usr/sbin/MAKEDEV audio". i get this output:
mv: cannot move `mixer-' to `mixer': Operation not permitted
mv: cannot move `sequencer-' to `sequencer': Operation not permitted
mv: cannot move `midi00-' to `midi00': Operation not permitted
mv: cannot move `dsp-' to `dsp': Operation not permitted
mv: cannot move `audio-' to `audio': Operation not permitted
... and so on.
what's wrong?

I had the same problem. The user has to be part of the audio group. After that, everything should work.

i'm logged in as root, so this shouldn't matter. and i cannot add root to the audio group.

Sorry I didn't read your initial post correctly. You have to have the driver compiled as a module. Then add it to the /etc/modules.autoload file.

That should fix it.
