Well if it is not there then you must call them back and report this, since also you cannot see the card in dmesg... > BIOS updates are known to make things better, but there are few chances to > cause such problems, in which case you can go back to a previous version. > Before you think of that however, find and read what the new version they > installed, is fixing.

However you took the machine back in 48 hours probably because: they unscrew one screw and changed your memory (not replacing the board..) and memory slots are not close to the sound card (are exatly under your left hand.(one screw) as i can see, then they updated the BIOS, then run some tests which passed, finally dispatched your laptop. Please don't try to open your laptop, i have a T30 here out of warranty. Just call them back, they will not charge you probably. > > > -----Original Message----- > From: "kalin mintchev" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2006 02:13:41 -0500 (EST) > Subject: missing /dev/dsp > > > > hi all.. > > i sent my t30 to ibm to replace a not working ram slot and i got it back > in less then 48 hrs. pretty good. except the /dev/dsp is missing. > > i don't see any cards in the dmesg but i know that the audio card is > "SoundBlaster compatible". my system is 5.4 and according to the handbook > devfs should figure it out - i haven't had to do this before... > a have the audio enabled in the kernel... pcm... > > any ideas why is the dsp missing? i think they did bios upgrade - is that > what screwed it up? > > thanks... > > -- > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > > > > -- _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
