[9fans] Still trying to acd going

[John Boutland]

I mailed a couple of days ago on this subject but have not found an 
answer yet. It would be vey nice to get this very neat
bit of software going. Following a reply from Gabi Diaz(?) who suggested 
that the Ensoniq es1371 was not supported, I dug up an oldish SB16 card 
but have still had no success. From earlier postings, I've tried 
audio0=type=sb16 port=0x220 (as well as audio1, type=ess1688 and various 
other ports) in plan9.ini, and have run bind '#A' /dev. Following a (Dec 
2000, so maybe out of date) posting from Russ Cox, I didn't enter irq or 
dma; even more variables to get wrong). As I mentioned earlier, 
everything works except I get no sound. I get the track title OK from 
the server. Using some of these ports produces other errors, as I would 
expect. Russ Cox's posting mentioned a program, tsb.c, a soundblaster 
probe, but it's no longer around, at least where it used to be.
