 You also could add 'device sbc' to your kernel config since that is the
 SB bridge driver. But the card should work with PCM only. 
 
 What does 'cat /dev/sndstat' say?

# cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: SB16 DSP 4.16 (ViBRA16X) at io 0x220 irq 7 drq 0 bufsz 4096d (1p/1r/0v 
channels duplex default)

cat test.wav  /dev/dsp makes a sound...  but it isn't exactly what
test.wav should sound like.

 The issue is probably some resource conflict. Since you have an SB 16,
 I'll have to ask: is it ISA? Or ISAPnP? Or PCI? PCI should just work
 but if it is ISA, you will need some tweaking.

It is an ISA card... very old.  Should I try and dig up a PCI card, or
is it going to fairly 'painless' tweaking?  Where should I start
tweaking?

Matt.

sound card woes

2003-08-20 Thread Matt Gostick
I have a SND Blaster 16 in my computer.  I was using FreeBSD 4.8 and
'device pcm' in my kernel config file, worked great.  I've completely
re-installed with 5.1R and recompiled my kernel with 'device pcm'. 
Unfortunately sound doesn't work.

I no longer have a /dev/snd0 device - I think I had one before...  how
do I make devices in 5.1R???   MAKEDEV is no longer available... and
section 9.5 of the FreeBSD manual says: If you are running FreeBSD 5.0
or later you can safely skip this section. These versions use devfs(5)
to allocate device nodes transparently for the user

I've written the -questions list and they told me to try wrinting here. 
What do I do?

Thanks,
Matt
