Re: SURVEY: Sound cards that work under FreeBSD
If memory serves, didn't John Reynolds~ say: 1) The sound card make and model/chipset. Please be as specific as you can with board rev numbers if possible. Please include wether the card is ISA or PCI. Crystal Tidalwave32 -- plug-n-play ISA card CSN 1 Vendor ID: XTL0005 [0x05008c62] 2) FreeBSD version(s) it was tested with. List *all* versions of FreeBSD for which you can verify that the sound card does/doesn't work (don't include -BETA or -SNAP releases but dates on -STABLE and -CURRENT branches are welcome). Tested with 2.2.8 and 3.2. Doesn't work with either. I'm going to try the OSS drivers. 3) Appropriate lines from your kernel config file / PNP setup. i.e. what did you have to do to get this card working? Did you need patches not committed to a particular branch (if so URLs would be welcome)? Do you use OSS drivers instead? I've tried many different config lines, but couldn't get it to work. 4) Sample dmesg output for properly configured device. Show the world what boot messages relate to the device after properly configured. CSN 1 Vendor ID: XTL0005 [0x05008c62] is reported from the pnp0 driver. 5) Miscellaneous notes. State anything not obvious to the casual FreeBSD user. Good examples might be, volume is 0 by default, use mixer(1) to adjust at boot time, or sh MAKEDEV snd1 for the 1st device, not snd0. 6) Is it OK to publish your e-mail address / name as the contributor of this information? You may type in an anti-spam version of your e-mail address below if you would like that option instead. Yeah. Publish my email. I'd like to be notified if someone finds a way to get this to work. -- Rich Rich Neswold | PGP: 0A C8 A5 76 DF 8E E1 B3 rnesw...@mcs.net | F3 97 BE 73 DA CD 4B C9 http://www.mcs.net/~rneswold | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with unsubscribe freebsd-hackers in the body of the message

Re: SURVEY: Sound cards that work under FreeBSD
Hi Warner, : The only line I had to add to my kernel config file was: : : device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0 : : (This causes a message "pcm0 not found" to appear at boot time but : just ignoring it seems to be o.k. - allthough I would prefer : not to see it, at all.) device pcm0 does the trick for me. I think that will work in 3.2. -current fixes the problem with psm0 not found. Thanks for the hint! I got rid of the error message :-) What I still don't understand is the following message at boot time: pcm1: using I/O space register mapping at 0xe400 I am wondering why there is a message concerning pcm1 instead of pcm0...

SURVEY: Sound cards that work under FreeBSD
Hello all, I'm working with Nik Clayton to update FAQ 3.15 to give a more comprehensive list of sound cards known to work with FreeBSD. That's why I'm sending out this template to this list. Please take the time to fill it out with information regarding your sound card so that we can compile a better list for posterity. I will do my best to keep the list current as FreeBSD evolves (please send to me or cc: me along with the list--it'll be easier to filter responses than grabbing them out of -hackers-digest :). Please be as specific about makes, models, chipsets, etc. as you can. The author of the first mail received regarding a specific sound card will be listed as the contributor of that information (unless he/she does not want his/her e-mail address listed :). Please note also that I would like information about sound cards that do NOT work (as of yet) under FreeBSD if anyone has experience with them. Hopefully, this will go well and we will be able to branch out into other pieces of supported/non-supported hardware in the future. Thank you. Survey: --- 1) The sound card make and model/chipset.
