Devices are automatically created by devfs. MAKEDEV is obsolete.

If you don't know which sound driver is the one you need, there is a
pseudo-driver that depends on all others (sound.ko, iirc). If you load
that, and you still don't get /dev/dsp and family, then odds are we
don't support your card.

Cheers,
Alex
