Sound card support

Wow -- there's a flash plugin for Netscape? That's what I needed for a couple of web sites. Also, I hope to contribute in some way to broaden FreeBSD's sound card support. I have the ESS 1868. I just made a printout of the data sheets for this particular sound card. If anyone out there needs the pdf version of the ESS 1868 datasheet/specs, just email me and I can send you a copy via email. So far, it looks like the 1868 only does full duplex in mono. ;-( (Is the 1868 even worth worrying about?) Also, how well does the ProAudio Spectrum 16 work at this point right now in -current? Does it work flawlessly? Whatever happened to the company that made the PAS 16? I saw where MediaVision doesn't exist anymore. Has another company taken over PAS development? Anyhow, as far as ISA cards go... how does the PAS 16 compare to the ESS 1868? I think the PAS only gets full duplex when you've got both the PAS and the SB compatibility side working in tandem. Well, I've got a PCI machine (Pentium), so I imagine a PCI sound card would be worlds better. - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
