Sound card support
Hello, I have an Yamaha OPL3SA2 sound card, isa-pnp. I had last year installed FreeBSD 5.2.1, and my sound card was supported, I had to add device pcm in the kernel configuration file. Now I installed FreeBSD 5.4, and I can't make my sound card to work. device pcm is unrecognised, device sound doesn't see my card, and Opl3sa2 is not on the hardware list. Question: Is there a way by which I can make my sound card work, or should I revert to FreeBSD 5.2.1 ? In this second case... are the FreeBSD ports packages still kept on the ftp sites ? ___ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If it worked on 5.2.1 it should still work - I don't think any audio drivers have been removed since then. You probably need to add some specific sound driver in addition to 'device sound' Try using kldload to load each of the snd_* kernel modules and see which one recognises your sound card - then you can add that device to your kernel config. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

SoundMax sound card support.
How can I know I FreeBSD 4.9 supports SoundMax sound cards and, if not, when will they be supported? __ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo!

You could either go to freebsd's website (freebsd.org), or if you have a releace CD downloaded and burned, you could check the CD. For the website, check the following link, select the applicable release version and then select Hardware notes. For the installation CD mount it and do the following: $cat /path_to_your_CD_mount/HARDWARE.TXT | more Of course, you could always check the FTP sites as well... For example, open your favorite browser and go to the following URL to view the HARDWARE nfo for the 4.9 release: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.9-RELEASE/HARDWARE.TXT (be advised that URL may have wrapped). As far as when... The best I can tell you is to check the history of the freebsd-hardware message board. You can do so by going to the following URL. You can even do a search so you won't have to read them all. http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hardware/ __ Do you Yahoo!?
