All: On one of my machines at work I run current and had been without "audio" until I found a posting where a user noted that enabling "APM" in the kernel broke audio.... Heh... I disabled apm/pmtimer and my PCM device works great.... While I don't really care about APM on my machine - I wanted to note this to "the list"..... Possibly this is a BIOS rev issue ??? The quick facts I can supply are: FreeBSD chimera.confluentasp.com 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #1: Fri Aug 24 11:14:29 EDT 2001 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/current/obj/usr/current /src/sys/chimera i386 (mikej@chimera) /home/staff/mikej$ dmesg | grep pcm pcm0: <VIA VT82C686A> port 0xe000-0xe003,0xdc00-0xdcff irq 10 at device 7.5 on p ci0 (mikej@chimera) /home/staff/mikej$ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: <VIA VT82C686A> at io 0xdc00 irq 10 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) (mikej@chimera) /home/staff/mikej$ --mikej Michael Jung [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
