Great! I have "normal" audio now. Thanks a lot Kazuhiro.
By the way, when I set the volume (mixer vol) to 100, I
would hear a loud, continuous beep, so what I do is I lower
the value to around 90 and the loud beep goes away.
What's causing it? Is the behaviour to be expected?

Thanks a lot. Finally, I can play audio/video without
having to boot to Windows.

I did that and I got a kernel panic. With the following on the console:


KLD file sound.ko - could not finalize loading

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
cpuid = 0; apic id = 00
fault virtual address   = 0xf00de2cf
fault code  = supervisor write, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x20:0xc0741063
stack pointer   = 0x28:0xc1020d20
frame pointer   = 0x28:0xc1020d6c
code segment= base 0x0, limit 0xf, type 0x13

processor eflags= interrupt enabled, resume, 10PL = 0
current process = 0 ()
trap number = 12
panic: page fault
cpuid = 0


I restored the original sound.ko snd_ich.ko to be able to use the system.

Hmm. That's interesting. I loaded all acpi_* modules and
did a "sysctl -a | grep -i vol" but unfortunately, nothing came
out.

I'm wondering where else could we look at? I really want
to make it work.

Very very weak sound from the speaker

2008-07-30 Thread Rommel Martinez
I'm wondering why is it that no matter what I do, I can't seem to make
my laptop emit sound lounder than a whisper.  The laptop is an ECS
Elitegroup W330 (Arima W330-UCX) and this is the website of the
laptop: http://www.arimacorp.com/ViewProduct.asp?View=145

I thought at first there was no sound coming out at all, so what I did was I
plugged an external speaker to it and maxed out the volume via the
volume knob and set my mixer settings all to 100, then I was able to
hear sound from the speaker, but it's too weak to be of any good use.

The following is my configuration:

$ cat /boot/loader.conf | grep snd_
snd_ich_load="YES"

$ kldstat | grep snd_
 31 0xc0d3 6f88 snd_ich.ko

$ kldstat | grep sound
 42 0xc0d37000 4a5acsound.ko

$ cat /var/run/dmesg.boot | grep pcm
pcm0:  port 0x5000-0x50ff,0x48c0-0x48ff mem

I tried audacious, xmms, and mpg123 but I still get
the same behaviour.

What's causing this? Can anybody give pointers why
is this happening?

Thanks.

Setting default keymap in kernel

2007-09-17 Thread Rommel Martinez
Is there any way to set the keyboard layout in the kernel other
than the default us.iso (qwerty) layout? I tried looking in the man
pages and the most that I got were some options. The
documentation instructed me to put these in my kernel config:

options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
makeoptions ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=
options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=

I did just that. I recompiled my kernel and boot with it, but still
got the old layout qwerty layout. I tried the same with
a USB keyboard with these options:

options UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
makeoptions UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=
options UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=

I got the same effect.

Thanks in advance.
