Of course. But that only gives a list of chipsets and doesn't actually tell you what cards use them which is the information I am looking for. I understand that idiotic vendors have a habit of randomly changing their chipsets so I don't expect this kind of information to be listed there. Only 1 other person has replied since I posted my request but luckily I found: http://www.arch.cam.ac.uk/~dir21/OpenBSD/sound.html I've since bought that card and although it works the sound quality is pretty poor, there is a lot of hissing which I don't get in Linux. On top of that mplayer is still unusably slow for playing DVDs (Athlon XP 2000+), this was also the case when I installed OpenBSD 3.8 on an AMD64 3200 last year. I have to note that this was a completely different system to the one I'm using now and yet it had the exact same problem, does nobody watch DVDs using OpenBSD or something? I will try again to find a solution to these problems on the mailing list but I don't hold up much hope given my experiences and will probably switch back. Thanks anyway. -- Conscience is the inner voice that warns us somebody is looking. -- H. L. Mencken, "A Mencken Chrestomathy"
