[altq 764] help for a newbie...



I am fairly new to OpenBSD 2.8 and definitely new to bandwidth management,
all of my research has pointed me to using altq for bandwidth management on
my OpenBSD 2.8 server.  I have downloaded altq 3.0 and for the most part
completed the installation process.
I am however getting "altqd: can't open altq device: Device not configured"
when I try to start altq.
A couple of questions I have:
After the installation process I didn't have a modules directory which was
referenced in the INSTALL document.  Should I be concerned?
Do I need to install cbq if all I want to do is bandwidth management (or
shaping)?
Should I install kame for altq to work properly on my OpenBSD server?
Finally, for a quick test, what should my conf file look like, the
altq.conf.sample that accompanies the altq install required cbq.

Thanks for you patients, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
