The BIOS only sees one card, it actually offers: - OFF : integrated audio is disabled - AUTO : use the add-in audio controler ( <== what does *that* mean ??) - ON : integrated audio is enabled I tried OFF, then cat /dev/sndstat still sees the "ghost" device: SunOS Audio Framework Audio Devices: 1: audiohd#1 onboard1, a (DUPLEX) Mixers: 1: audiohd#1 onboard1, a Unkown HD codec Then "audiotest" just fails, hanging in the first test and never completing... What I check else? Stephane
