7.0 No Sound: emu10k1
I'm hoping that someone can help me get my soundcard working properly with FreeBSD 7.0. I have tried all of the suggestions in the handbook, and am at a loss on next steps to diagnose. I am starting to think that I am missing something very simple. Hardware: SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS (PCI bus) installed in Dell Dimension 4100 (P3 1Ghz circa 2001, no internal sound card) Software: FreeBSD 7.0p2 (GENERIC kernel updated using freebsd-update) Driver: snd_emu10k1 (via loader.conf) I am not getting any error messages that indicate a problem. The driver is loading and /dev/sndstat shows proper output. The issue is that I get absolutely no sound out of my soundcard. I have tried using mpg123, and cat file /dev/dsp without any output. The mixer levels look good (to me), and I am getting no failure messages. I have tested the speakers with another audio source (no issues), and am about the try swapping the soundcard into a new machine (running a different OS) to ensure that the card itself is not fried. Apologies for the long email, see detailed output below...

Re: 7.0 No Sound: emu10k1
Besides having loaded the snd_emu10k1, have you made sure you have the sound driver loaded? In order to get any sound you need both of them loaded into the kernel .. the sound module loads the sound system .. and the snd_xxx just loads the right module for your sound card... so, basically, check you have both modules loaded ... This is how my sound config looks like on my kernel configuration: # Sound device sound device snd_emu10k1 # SoundBlaster Live! If you do have the sound module loaded, try unloading the snd_emu10k1 and load the snd_emu10kx which seem to be the right module for Audigy cards. More info: man snd_emu10kx Hope this helped :) -- Blessings Gonzalo Nemmi On Monday 30 June 2008 14:43:11 David Horn wrote: I'm hoping that someone can help me get my soundcard working properly with FreeBSD 7.0.

Re: 7.0 No Sound: emu10k1
Thanks for the hint. snd_emu10kx instead of snd_emu10k1 (doh!) I knew it had to be something simple. Everything is working great now. --_Dave ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Everything is working great now. For future reference there's an easy way to find the correct driver. You kldload snd_driver (which loads all sound drivers), start playing some audio, and then kldunload snd_driver. kldstat will then show you the driver that couldn't be unloaded because it's in use. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
