Im not sure what sound card came with my dell (its 3 years old). So i did: #kldload snd_emu10k1 #kldload snd_driver then: #cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: AudioPCI ES1371-B at io 0xec40 irq 11 kld snd_es137x(1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) This is my first time trying to get the sound working. I try play an mp3 ans dont hear anything. Perhaps using the snd_driver wont work in my case... Is there a way to get freeBSD to show my sound device so I can load the correct module? Or is there something else im doing wrong?

One is running FreeBSD 5.4 and the other two have WinXP Pro installed. I networked all three together. The WinXP systems are using the NTFS format. Samba can read and write to both of the WinXP machines without any problems. I really do not know if this is germane to a dual boot system however. It probably is not since WinXP would not actually be running when FreeBSD was in this type of configuration. Fat32 is really a poor file system when compared to NTFS. It is too bad that he is unable to get a second machine and use FreeBSD on it instead of dual booting. Just my 2ยข. Gerhard, Just to clear up a point. In your case, Samba is not writing to NTFS. it is handling the communications between the 2 operating systems using the SMB protocol. The individual OS' handle to filing system input/outputs. The issue with FreeBSD reading and writing to NTFS directly is different. There is a driver that will allow FreeBSD to read NTFS, but because of the complexities of NTFS writing to it is dificult and whilst possible can cause the NTFS partition to become unreadable by XP. For info the best way of setting up dual booting of FreeBSD and XP is to use 3 partitions, 1 for XP using NTFS, 1 for FreeBSD and a 3rd Fat32 partition for data transfer.

You can use mount_smbfs to mount a shared resource from an SMB file server. See 'man mount_smbfs' for more info.

Can you describe your problem in more detail ? Are you not able to mount a data cd-rom when then latter is in the drive? Have you created mount points for your cd-rom drives e.g /cdrom and /cdrom1 and tried mounting them ?

Video / Audio Capture Framework in FreeBSD ?
Hello list. Does anyone know if there will be a Video / Audio capture framework that will be part of FreeBSD in the next few years ? I currently use the bktr device for image capture, but it would be nice if there was some kind of interface that would permit me to capture from a broader kind of video devices. On Linux they have v4l ( video for linux ) that does exactly that, but i don't think it will be ported to *BSD due to licensing issues. I came across bsdav in the ports tree, but it seems to be broken. I am also curious as to what kind of capture methods/framework other image/signal processing people use under FreeBSD.
