Hi, I am very confused with all this: both the home machine which I installed RH9 2.4.20-8 on, and the work one, which comes with it pre-installed, have the following output for $ cat /proc/devices | grep 14 14 sound 140 pts 141 pts 142 pts 143 pts 14 unnamed The home machine is a Dell Latitude C840 laptop and the work machine is a gigantic Dell Dimension 650. Does anyone have any idea as to what all this is? How come only I get this output?? I have looked at the devices.txt and was unable to come up with anything....
