/etc/modprobe.conf has nothing by now, but with the kernel
driver was not
necesary to have something, the driver is the same...

Should it help if I re-run snddevices every time I boot to
regenerate the
/dev/* files? note that /dev/snd/* do not dissapear, only
files at /dev/
>>- Why the /dev/* audio devides disappear when I
reboot?

there.
I have two locations with audio stuff, /dev/ and /dev/snd/,
the files at the
first directory disappear, while the files at /dev/snd/
remain but /dev/dsp*
/dev/mixer* etc are not available after reboot

>The system is doing nothing of the sort. Perhaps some

>Which program?
Any program, X11, kmix, xmms, etc. it says /dev/dsp is not
available or no
such device depending the program, even alsamixer does not
work
$ alsamixer
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such
device

As I said, programs report "no such device" even
X11

I have troubles recording with microphone, it records with
interference of a
high frequency sound in the background, it is not because
the speakers, even
disconnected occurs the same. Hardware is okay it works fine
in windows...
for playback works great.

Even the mixer does not work, so it is not because the
volume, programs
report /dev/dsp not found (after reboot) or no such device
even if it is
there after ./snddevices without reboot to regenerate
them...
