I have a Sound Blaster Live. I am runinng Red Hat 9 and when start i get an error of /dev/dsp or something like that and tell me that cant init the sound server. How can i configure the sound card??
Can you run ''ls -l /dev/dsp' and put the results here. I'm betting that the permission isn't set correctly. You'll either need to give the permissions for OTHERS or put yourself into the group that this device belongs to. Eitherway will work but the first method might involve security threats.

You can configure certain devices in /etc/security/console.perms, and pam_console will chown them to whoever logs in at the physical console (ie. not over the network or any serial console or anything).
