This may be a wild stab in the dark, but I'm hoping someone out there has this one resolved already...
Bought Unreal Tournament 2004. The demo worked nicely under kernel 2.6.4.
Installed the retail version, and the following occurs:
bash-2.05b$ /usr/local/ut2004/ut2004 open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such device
I've searched google without much luck. The Linux Games FAQ at icculus.org/lgfaq/ mentions some alternate drivers to be set as environment variables, which I see make no difference.
I've compiled alsa in, with oss compatibility. The compatibility modules are indeed loaded. Other applications are giving sound fine, including the UT2004 demo.
Most frustrating! Can anyone help?
Thanks,
James Green

We hate replying to our own posts... Someone has just provided the answer on a game forum.
Copy the files, libSDL-1.2.so.0, and openal.so from the System directory of the demo to the same directory of the retail installation.
All works now :)

Is /dev/[sound]/dsp is there? Since you are using kernel 2.6.4, I don't know which distribution of Linux you are using here... Normally devfsd/udev is required (download and install).
Or could be permissions problems (which I always hate.....)
