This looks like mplayer is accessing the drive, but
cannot play the file. A missing codec error should
look different.



 I have tried different movies and get similar results :(

So you can exclude media error.

Maybe this diagnostic script from my outbox can
help you to track down the error. It has been made
on 7-STABLE i386 with mplayer-0.99.11_3 - a quite
old system. See if the steps described here can be
reproduced on your system in a similar way.

Here's an example of my THX 1138 movie DVD:

Step 1: Identify media

% cdcontrol info
Starting track = 1, ending track = 1, TOC size = 18 bytes
track start  duration   block  length   type
-
1   0:02.00  206:28.68   0  929168   data
  170  206:30.68 -  929168   -  -

Step 2: Identify file system

% file -  /dev/acd0
/dev/stdin: UDF filesystem data (version 1.5) 'THX_1138'

Step 3: Mount file system and check content

% sudo mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/acd0 /mnt

you should be ABLE to mount a DVD. If this causes the
system to reboot, find out what's causing this. Maybe
a defective drive? Can you check with different drive?

It's the same problem as in your previous description, and
I assume that is has nothing to do with codecs. In combination
with the inability of mounting DVDs (which should work),
there may be a SERIOUS problem hiding in the background.

Have you been able to perform the first steps of my
checklist, i. e. the cdcontrol and media identification
part?



 I have to blame mplayer or is it FreeBSD? 

I think it's the hardware - your description of rebooting
when trying to mount lets me think into this direction.

Try to find out the reason. Work with AS FEW variables
as possible, i. e. start with plain simple tests as
I mentioned them. If you get THAT done without error,
the problem is somewhere else.

Another thing: Can you check device permissions for
the acd* devices, as well as for cd* and xpt* if you're
using ATAPICAM? Just to make sure and MINIMIZE the
variables involved in this diagnostic process.



 The movie is good, it plays
 on my other FreeBSD box, is something wrong or should I try to go for
 vlc?

Well, VLC isn't bad, although I really prefer mplayer
as I'm using it since the earliest days. But I doubt
VLC will play without the codecs (that are, as far as
I understood, an independent part and port).

This is on mt TODO list, I was going to try and swap another dvd drive
(SATA) which is my suspicion :(

 I think it's the hardware - your description of rebooting

I'd think I'd have to agree :(, the damn dvd drive, it is new but old
IDE does not work as well as SATA.

I have a /etc/devfs.conf file with the following:

VLC did not play the dvds either, took a while to compile it(for
troubleshooting this dvd problem).  I like both players just to be
honest.

I have a similar amd64 machine that does play mostly everything in it,
but I installed mplayer differently
# pkg_add -r mplayer

** had problems with KDE and lib???.so not working and startx refused
to work, last time I used ports. But this time everything is working
beautifully have installed gkrellm, mplayer, vlc and texmaker fine via
ports.  I am getting some confidence back.

*However* that machine has SATA cables not IDE like this one, this is
my take on the issue.  If  i install/try a SATA dvd drive, it will
work*

Thanks for helping/advising.

Cross-testing would always be good - especially as you've
mentioned an impossible behaviour, i. e. mounting a DVD
causes a system reboot.



 I'd think I'd have to agree :(, the damn dvd drive, it is new but old
 IDE does not work as well as SATA.

I can't confirm that. In my machine which is more than
7 years old now, I'm using (P)ATA / ATAPI stuff only
(because it doesn't have any SATA inside), and it keeps
working as intended. Still it may be possible that
modern hardware doesn't play that good anymore. :-)

If possible, just try a different DVD drive, as you've
eleminated the reason bad DVD already.



 I have a /etc/devfs.conf file with the following:
 
 # Commonly used by many ports
 linkacd0cdrom
 linkacd0dvd
 
 # Allow all users to access CD’s
 perm /dev/acd0 0666
 perm /dev/acd1 0666
 perm /dev/cd0 0666
 perm /dev/cd1 0666
 
 # Allow all USB Devices to be mounted
 perm /dev/da0 0666
 perm /dev/da1 0666
 perm /dev/da2 0666
 perm /dev/da3 0666
 perm /dev/da4 0666
 
 # Misc other devices
 perm /dev/pass0 0666
 perm /dev/xpt0 0666
 perm /dev/agpart 0666
 perm /dev/uscanner0 0666

Fully okay. So the reason wrong permissions is also out
of scope now.



 VLC did not play the dvds either, took a while to compile it(for
 troubleshooting this dvd problem).  I like both players just to be
 honest.

I really think it's the drive. Also make sure that the
codecs are installed. If you're on x64, try to use the
COMPAT32 facility. As I'm not owning x64 at home, I sadly
can't be more specific about this idea.



 I have a similar amd64 machine that does play mostly everything in it,
 but I installed mplayer differently
 # pkg_add -r mplayer

This installs mplayer with the default options which may
not be optimal in some situations, especially if it's
illegal in one's country to watch DVDs. :-)



 ** had problems with KDE and lib???.so not working and startx refused
 to work, last time I used ports.

I always use ports for this. Although I'm a big fan of
precompiled packages, mplayer and gmencoder are the tools
I *insist* on building from source, both with a custom
Makefile.local that defines ALL the codecs I want, which
is _all_ of them. :-)



 *However* that machine has SATA cables not IDE like this one, this is
 my take on the issue.  If  i install/try a SATA dvd drive, it will
 work*

Really, try a different drive, and if you can, also try
different cables, just to make sure it's NOT the cables
causing trouble.

2011-04-20 Thread Antonio Olivares
 This MAY be a codec problem. You can try the following:
 First mount the DVD (cd_9660), then use mplayer on one
 of the VOB files directly. Choose one of the bigger
 files for this test, and maybe use mplayer's -v option
 to get an idea what may be wrong - the program should
 tell you about this.

[SOLVED] sound card not recognized by freebsd 8.2 but mentioned in PC-BSD 8.2

2011-04-19 Thread Zhang Weiwu, Beijing
I am actually amazed nobody nor the handbook mentioned OSS to me, 
because after learned this, it suddenly become obvious this option 
should be tried right after failure of snd_driver. In fact, the sound 
card in-topic is Ali M5455, the first on the list of sound card 
supported by OSS.


http://manuals.opensound.com/devlists/FreeBSD.html

The solution is as simple as 'pkg_add -vr oss'. done. solved.

Consider OSS supported sound card list is rather long, it should be a 
must recommendation after snd_driver.


Again amazed that lspci in Linux showed keyword M5455, but pciconf -lv 
didn't show keyword M5455. Having the keyword it's only a minute to 
figure out which is the right driver.

 Apparently it works, but I put in some small speakers, but could not

 On some machines, speakers do not activate automatically,
 they need a driver that switches the connector to active.
 Also check mixer settings. ALWAYS check them. :-)



 Installed mplayer from within ports,
 # cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer
 # make install clean
 and tried to play some mp3's and got a codec error :(, since machine
 is 64 bit installing codecs from mplayer site does not work :(, and
 linux compatibility is not installed.

 Use command line tools like madplay or mpg123 for testing.
 Also consider using xmms as a versatile MP3 (and OGG/Vorbis)
 media player.

Mplayer played some ogg files that I had correctly and sound is working :)

snd_hda did the trick :)


 Sorry for drifting out of
 original sound problem, but I also tried to play a dvd and it failed
 to load since atapi cam was not  in /boot/loader.conf because cd/dvd
 drive is old style(not SATA)

This is now working correctly :), added the command in /boot/loader.conf

 That doesn't matter. I have parallel ATA devices here that
 play nicely with ATAPICAM (mainly in use for CD and DVD
 recording). But you shouldn't need to have ATAPICAM in order
 to play DVDs. I know that mplayer has a configuration option
 for that... maybe it's sufficient to link /dev/acd0 to /dev/dvd

link exists /dev/dvd - /dev/acd0
but dvd does not play :(

 (per /etc/devfs.conf) to provide the default location, or
 use -dvd-device dev to name it on the command line. Also
 make sure you have the required codecs installed.
Since the machine is 64 bit having the codecs does no good :(, I ran
the configuration and tried to install Realplayer which tried to pull
linux compatibility which I did not want and reran config.
 Going
 through make config in mplayer (or mencoder) is always
 a good choice.


However, playing dvd's does not seem to work :(
I try to run
$ mplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /dev/acd0
and it complains about not finding some vob
Sorry for not posting exact error will do so tomorrow as soon as I can.

You can try to use the 32 bit compatibility (COMPAT32)
and then run the 32 bit version of mplayer. As I do not
own a 64 bit system, I can't be more specific.

Hi Antonio

Think you'll find it's a hda device...

add snd_hda_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf and it should be loaded next
time you boot the machine.

If your not getting any sound, you might have to change the
hw.snd.default_auto sysctl to match your other inputs.

Regards

 Hi Antonio

 Think you'll find it's a hda device...

 add snd_hda_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf and it should be loaded next
 time you boot the machine.

 If your not getting any sound, you might have to change the
 hw.snd.default_auto sysctl to match your other inputs.

 Regards

 Craig B

Thanks Craig,

Apparently it works, but I put in some small speakers, but could not
get music to play.  Installed mplayer from within ports,
# cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer
# make install clean
and tried to play some mp3's and got a codec error :(, since machine
is 64 bit installing codecs from mplayer site does not work :(, and
linux compatibility is not installed. Sorry for drifting out of
original sound problem, but I also tried to play a dvd and it failed
to load since atapi cam was not  in /boot/loader.conf because cd/dvd
drive is old style(not SATA)

18.6.9 Using the ATAPI/CAM Driver
Contributed by Marc Fonvieille.

This driver allows ATAPI devices (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD drives etc...) to
be accessed through the SCSI subsystem, and so allows the use of
applications like sysutils/cdrdao or cdrecord(1).

To use this driver, you will need to add the following line to the
/boot/loader.conf file:

NEEDED to add
atapicam_load=YES
to /boot/loader.conf

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html

have added this to machine and will check tomorrow to see if sound is
output by machine.  Thanks for helping/advising.

Regards,

Antonio

On some machines, speakers do not activate automatically,
they need a driver that switches the connector to active.
Also check mixer settings. ALWAYS check them. :-)

Use command line tools like madplay or mpg123 for testing.
Also consider using xmms as a versatile MP3 (and OGG/Vorbis)
media player.

That doesn't matter. I have parallel ATA devices here that
play nicely with ATAPICAM (mainly in use for CD and DVD
recording). But you shouldn't need to have ATAPICAM in order
to play DVDs. I know that mplayer has a configuration option
for that... maybe it's sufficient to link /dev/acd0 to /dev/dvd
(per /etc/devfs.conf) to provide the default location, or
use -dvd-device dev to name it on the command line. Also
make sure you have the required codecs installed. Going
through make config in mplayer (or mencoder) is always
a good choice.

Yes, it will.  'snd_driver' is a meta-module which depends on, and
therefore will pull in, all the available sound drivers.

(If you don't believe me try checking the output of 'kldstat' before
and after doing 'kldload snd_driver')

I have read meanwhile that most hardware is meanwhile supported by this. I 
tried it only a long time and got stuck then with loading directly the driver I 
need without ever bothering about the other options.

Anyway, the original poster seems to have the same problem I have had with my 
hardware those days.

sound card not recognized by freebsd 8.2 but mentioned in PC-BSD 8.2

2011-04-15 Thread Zhang Weiwu, Beijing
Hello. I intend to use FreeBSD instead of PC-BSD. The sound card doesn't 
work on FreeBSD 8.2. I tried to follow the manual and loaded all sound 
card drivers


# kldload snd_driver

But no driver works:

# cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 32bit 2009061500/i386)
Installed devices:

There is nothing after installed devices. And there is nothing about 
sound card mentioned in dmesg.


I had the impression non of the drivers recognizes the card, which is:

none1@pci0:0:4:0: class=0x040100 card=0x103b13bd chip=0x545510b9 rev=0x03 
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Acer Labs Incorporated (ALi/ULi)'
device = 'AC'97 Audio Controller (M1563M Southbridge)'
class = multimedia
subclass = audio


Search for the chip ID as keyword on google reveals in PC-BSD this 
keyword is mentioned in their driver database 
/PCBSD/soundDetect/soundcards.xml


source: http://trac.pcbsd.org/changeset/3018/pcbsd

Somehow this hints PC-BSD recognizes and can configure this sound card.

My question is, if PC-BSD could play using this sound card, a FreeBSD 
method must not be too far away, right? Can I configure FreeBSD somehow 
to let a driver recognize and make use of this sound card?


P. S. If it doesn't work, I guess I'll fall back to Windows instead of 
PC-BSD because I intend to use this machine for playing around and 
testing GNUStep including its multimedia. The computer has a hard-wired 
8GB storage which is OK for the purpose, but not enough for PC-BSD.

You must load the driver for your sound card. Something like

kldload  snd_hda

You must replace snd_hda by the name of the driver for your card.

I am confused, because the handbook says the opposite:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/sound-setup.html


To use your sound device, you will need to load the proper device driver.


Then:


If you are not sure which driver to use, you may try to load the 
snd_driver module:


#  kldload snd_driver
This is a metadriver loading the most common device drivers at once. 


Even though I wish to use only the right driver, the manual didn't say 
how can I find which driver is the right one except trying with 
snd_driver. It didn't even mention what drivers are there on the system. 
One might expect it at /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC but there is 
nothing mentioning sound card.



You must replace snd_hda by the name of the driver for your card.


I'd be glad to try that if you inform me what is the name of the driver 
for my card, or point me way to find this information:)


Thanks for answering my mail!

My suggestion would be to install the port sox, it will
provide a rec command that can be used to record WAV or
any other supported audio file format, e. g.

% rec foo.au

or

% rec bar.wav

And sox provides other excellent command line tools for
audio manipulation (sox, play, rec); see man sox for
details. Note that play filename is easier than
cat'ing the file to the dsp device directly (which may
require specific access permissions).

If I run:
cut filename . /dev/dsp
it produced a sound.

And when KDE start I got:
 The audio playback device EMU10Kx DSP front PCM interface (pcm) does not 
work.

And now about problem. When I start a computer, than startx' (start KDE) and 
I checked a KMix I have on Microphone checked capture but recording doesn't 
works. Than I restart KDE and in KMix I have checked capture on CD and 
Microphone bur recording doesn't works still. Thank I use
 
mixer -S =rec mic

and recording works.
This problem I have all the time with KDE 4 but I never had with KDE 3.
 
 Thanks in advance,

depends of the hardware.

I find it hard to believe that a device that is available for around 
?1.50 can be as good as a PCI card costing quite a lot more.


it MAY. cost often have no correlation with quality in PC hardware market.
It may be crap-sound or super-hifi.

In theory it's easier to get high quality because there are easier to 
protect it from electrical noises as it's outside your computer.

FreeBSD is reporting it in 1024-based units like memory/storage is
usually reported within OSs - it's just that the use of MiB etc hasn't
really caught on. Manufacturers use decimal units.

It's actually reporting 114440MB rather than the 114GB you mentioned, so
it's a factor of (1000/1024)^2 not (1000/1024)^3.

Theoretically placing snd_csa_load=YES in /boot/loader.conf should enable
this card. If it is loading OK kldstat will show it and you should get
output from cat /dev/sndstat confirming.

is matching the #define CS4614_PCI_ID 0x60031013 in the driver code so it
really ought to work. If it doesn't try not loading the acpi module at
boot. But if HP did something really non standard when they wired this up
you could be SOL.

also identifies this as a 120 gb drive as do several linux distrinutions

one item i forgot to include that freebsd v7 came back with several
different (with several succesive reboots) free space guesses (no
intervention from me just putting in teh dvd and booting .. in several
machines whose bios' all said that this is a 120 (real) gb drive

could this be a lba confusion/issue between teh drive/bios/freebsd
interpretation ?? it is a term i recall from earlier, when thes
kinds of drives first appeared and casued significant consternations
for everybody not just freebsd. it is a problems as far as i have
several of thes drives to be putting into several 'server' machines
where this kind of freespace 'loss' would become an issue --- hardware
density, as in drivers per terabyte leading to power consumption/space
and heating conciderations in raid arrays (five and ten drive rack)s

this is not a 'real' problem as 95 gb (whats left after install from a
114 gb start point) is more than enough for this boxes task-load. it is
that i find this a bit confusing/interesting, esp given that fresbie
v1.1 aslo sees this as a 120 gb drive ???  just interested in fiding

  Installed devices:

Right, so you should only need snd_csa_load=YES in /boot/loader.conf, 
assuming you have a GENERIC kernel that already has 'device sound'; if 
not, you may also need sound_load=YES.

If you set 'sysctl hw.snd.verbose=2' manually or have 'hw.snd.verbose=2' 
in /etc/sysctl.conf, you'll get more info out of 'cat /dev/sndstat', 
which someone might need if you're still having problems with sound.

I think you're perhaps referring to what df tells you about free space? 
Remember that UFS reserves, by default, 8% of a slice for system use or 
overcommitment by root.  So a 120GB drive, all allocated to one slice, 
newfs'd, you'd expect df to show you around 110GB.  If you actually fill 
it up, from a root process, you'd see the oft-dreaded '108% capacity' :)

Assuming for example that your disk is /dev/ad0, show us the output of 
'fdisk -s ad0'.  Then, for any slice/s (X) having FreeBSD type 0xa5, 
show result of 'bsdlabel ad0sX'.  The sector maths should then work out.

  could this be a lba confusion/issue between teh drive/bios/freebsd 
  interpretation ?? it is a term i recall from earlier, when thes kinds 
  of drives first appeared and casued significant consternations for

  density, as in drivers per terabyte leading to power consumption/space
  and heating conciderations in raid arrays (five and ten drive rack)s

From memory, all disks over ~8GB need LBA addressing.  It's been a long 
while since the LBA vs CHS setup was an issue, which is why on modern 
disks you should always ignore sysinstall's archaic whinging about the 
geometry, and just use what's originally detected, ie leave it alone.

  this is not a 'real' problem as 95 gb (whats left after install from a
  114 gb start point) is more than enough for this boxes task-load. it is
  that i find this a bit confusing/interesting, esp given that fresbie

  out what is going on and if this is a pointer to future hardware
  mis-identification --- i understand the difference between real
  gigabytes and marketing department gigabytes

The fdisk and bsdlabel outputs will tell the true story.  If, as you 
suggested earlier, you did enter a different geometry, you might have 
lost some real space, so also show us 'fdisk ad0 | grep cylinders'

i do not know what else to provide to help with this ..

apart from teh 
no sound' problem the only other oddity that this machine displays is
some mild confusion about the hard drive.

the drive is a 120 gb hitachi deskstar .. linux (several of teh most
recent distributions, ubuntu/centos/fedora sees it as a 120 gb, as
dose solaris v10/v11 but freebsd calls it a 114 gb drive and no
fiddling with teh geometry altres that outcome (several combinations
make it even less than teh 114 gb .. some come down to 85 gb.  i don't
have a freebsd v6 box anymore to test this drive in, it died, this is
why teh new (to me) box and teh sudden/abrupt move into freebsd v7.

if it helps .. this is teh details

Hi,

I'm trying to determine what sound card a notebook has.  There are
three relevant dmesg lines below, but looking at freebsd's hardware
notes, I can't tell whether I should use the snd_ich(4) driver for an
Intel ICH4 card, the snd_hda(4) driver for an 82801 card or a sigmatel
card.  Any suggestions?

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html

Especially:

If you are not sure which driver to use, you may try to load the 
snd_driver module:


# kldload snd_driver

This is a metadriver loading the most common device drivers at once. 
This speeds up the search for the correct driver.

Thank you all for your replies.  It was snd_ich.

And sorry for the double post to the list.  Despite having the list
option Receive your own posts to the list set, it seems when I send
messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't get my own copy.  I reread the
mailing list info on the freebsd.org page and it said to send messages

Re: Sound card problem

2008-04-08 Thread Sébastien Morand
Hi,

I don't really ge an anwser to my own question, but I get a solution
to have my sound card working: use OSS and it's automatically
detected. My steps:
- Remove envy24ht from loader.conf
- Install oss (src required)
- Enable oss un rc.conf at boot time

dsp* devices are created, my sound card is dsp or dsp0. It's working
fine and I can manage the sound.

what kind of sound card?

2007-12-19 Thread Gary Kline

People,

It's been quite awhile since I bought my AWE-64, so my question is
why kinds of sound cards are good to very-good.   I do not need a
MIC In, but it'd be nice to have.  I only have L and R speakers
and a subwoofer.(I see there's a 7.1 configuration!!  I'll
pass on that:-)

Suggestion?  And good/bad experiences??

The command 'apropos Audigy' gives: snd_emu10k1(4)

I quote:

  The snd_emu10k1 driver supports the following sound cards:

 o   Creative SoundBlaster Live! (EMU10K1 Chipset)
 o   Creative SoundBlaster Audigy (EMU10K2 Chipset)
 o   Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 (EMU10K2 Chipset)

   http://www.4front-tech.com
 
  That is not too hard ;-)
The OSS drivers do not integrate as well as the native drivers with most 
multimedia applications. Features like automatic vchannels are missing. Also, 
I found the mmap'ed audio support to be buggy, but this may have changed.
 
   Note that in my opinion the native FreeBSD drivers are a lot better.
 
  What drivers? The ones that don't exist for the card?
Drivers for supported cards ofcourse :)
 
  In my opinion the SB Audigy is a very common card that should have
  been supported long ago. On the other hand, the OSS drivers are very
  good.

 The command 'apropos Audigy' gives: snd_emu10k1(4)

 I quote:

   The snd_emu10k1 driver supports the following sound cards:

  o   Creative SoundBlaster Live! (EMU10K1 Chipset)
  o   Creative SoundBlaster Audigy (EMU10K2 Chipset)
  o   Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 (EMU10K2 Chipset)
  o   Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 (EMU10K3 Chipset)

 I'm not sure if this is the right one, because I can't find the type of
 chip used in the SE on the Creative site.
The Audigy SE (24bit/96khz) isn't among the supported cards. I bought this 
card some time ago because it was dirt cheap, only to discover that there was 
no native freebsd driver for it. The chip is different from the standard 
Audigy. I have to say, the windows drivers sucked too. It is now collecting 
dust in my hardware bin :)

I need sound card recommendation

2007-08-25 Thread Predrag Punosevac

Dear ALL,
After reading 120 pages of Open Sound System manual (the one compiled 
from ports) and playing with my audio card for almost a week.
I came to a conclusion that my present audio card Audiology SE is not 
fully supported (duplex mode) even with the  OSS  compiled from ports. 
(Or I am just dumb to set it properly).  Hence,  I can not use VoIP 
which is  really  important to me.


So  I would like to get a recommendation  for  a sound card. In 
particular, I would like to get a recommendation from people running fully
functional VoIP (Skype or SIP) using the sound cards fully recognized by 
FreeBSD available drivers (I do not want to mess any more with

OSS from ports).

The easiest thing for me would be to buy probably Sound Blaster Live 
($30) but I over heard that Creative has change the chip set and that 
the kernel has troubles with new chip even without duplex mode. I hope 
that this is a wrong information.


If you are using VoIP would you be so kind to tell me your audio card, 
the driver you use and possibly set up (at least if you are using 6.2 
Stable or 7.0 Current and if you are using generic kernel and loading 
drivers, or what kind of custom kernel should I built)


Thanks a lot
Predrag

Do you mean Windows XP? It is a mailing list for FreeBSD. Anyway, it

 Here:

 http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/BINARY_MODULES/

Thanks very much for this. A few more questions. The instructions say:

0. _Remove_ _all_ sound support in your kernel! Do this first before
   anything else!
1. Extract, dump everything into your kernel directory typically
   /boot/kernel
2. kldxref /boot/kernel
3. cp soundcard.h /usr/include/sys/
4. Reload _ALL_ sound modules, or, reboot.

Is it necessary to recompile the kernel without sound support, if it has 
previously been compiled in? Would this mean compiling it without device 
sound?

Does dump everything mean use dump, or could they just be copied? If dump, 
how is it used?

Yes. Please remove any trace of sound/snd_* within your kernel before
using these binary modules.

 Does dump everything mean use dump, or could they just be copied?
 If dump,  how is it used?
 
Copy, overwrite, it's all the same.

Sound Card Problem

All,
I upgraded to the lastest version of RELENG_6 and now my onboard sound does 
not work. It worked on earlier versions of RELENG_6(3 Months Ago). Did 
something change that I should be aware of. I rebuilt system again just to 
verify. I am using an SOYO SY-P4I 845PE motherboard. It does not seem to see 
it now. Please help and thanks for your assistance.

I have no idea what you asked, but I'm assuming you'd like to get sound
working for that chipset. Try (from memory):

kldload sound

That'll load all sound drives and whichever attaches is the drive you

 It's not works on the _all_ ac97 sound cards. snd_via8233 and some

cat /dev/sndstat

will tell you which loaded driver actually attached to the device.

It's in the Multimedia section of the handbook.

after loading the snd_driver meta module, to see which module

That always worked for me with 5.x, but I haven't tried any

Hi,

It's just a guess without seeing the output of
dmesg but I think the ICH driver is the one, YMMV.

In my /boot/loader.conf I have the entry
snd_ich_load=YES

For a more definitive answer post your dmesg.

Just try to kldload each snd_* manually, one after the other (don't kldload
snd_driver though) from the console, until the right one writes something
out. I've had a similar problem with an AC97 chipset in a laptop which
turned out to be a snd_t4dwave.ko

Good luck,

Hi Dave,

I have this :
pcm0: Avance Logic ALC650 AC97 Codec

and in my kernel :
# sound device
device  sound
device  snd_via8233

Regarding quality, I had a lot of problems (meaning sound distorsion), 
but it disappeared all a sudden one day, and I don't know why. So now, 
it works really well.

Sound card getting blocked somehow

2006-02-03 Thread Jesse Sheidlower

My soundcard seems to be blocked somehow, and I'm not sure how
this happened or what to do about it. I don't believe I did
anything specific, but sound simply stopped working; if I
start up xmms (for example) I get a console message **
WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device
(/dev/dsp): No such file or directory, and a popup window
reading Couldn't open audio: Please check that: Your
soundcard is configured properly/You have the correct output
plugin selected/No other program is blocking the soundcard.

I know that the card is configured and the right output plugin
is selected (I don't get sound with any other apps either),
and I don't have anything else running that uses sound, and in
any case lsof shows that nothing is using /dev/dsp.

Rebooting fixes it, but it then happens again, with no obvious
trigger.

In my most recent attempt to fix things I managed to delete
/dev/dsp entirely (I get the oss_open message regardless),
and don't know how to recreate it.

I'm running 6.0-STABLE #3; here's my /dev/sndstat:

-
$ cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: Intel ICH3 (82801CA) at io 0x1c00, 0x18c0 irq 11 bufsz 16384 kld 
snd_ich (1p/1r/4v channels duplex default)

Is A Sound Card Required For Music Player Daemon?

2006-01-24 Thread Drew Tomlinson
I am running FBSD 6.0 on a headless system with no sound card.  What I 
had hoped to do was get Music Player Daemon running on this box and then 
send it's output to Icecast2.  The actual sound would be generated by 
other devices with sound cards.


But in looking over the mpd.conf file, it appears a sound card is 
needed.  Does Icecast then take the sound and re-digitize it in its 
own format?  I'm confused.


Thanks for a kick in the right direction.

A bug of freebsd6's mod_php5? And need help with my silent sound card.

2005-12-09 Thread Kun Niu
Dear all,

I've recently installed mod_php5 on my freebsd6.
And I found the module failed to work at first.
When I checked the config file of httpd.conf.
I followed the instructions of php.net
I change application/x-php to application/x-httpd-php.
And finally it's working for me now.
And can any one tell me how to make my creative sound card work?
My sound card only work on linux kernel above 2.6.12.
It uses alsa's emu10k1x module.
But it fails to work for me on freebsd.
Wish your kind help.

Thanks in advance and look forward to your reply.
Sincerely,
Kun

Sound Card Recommendations

2005-11-19 Thread Allen D. Tate
Hello All,

I have a PC with a built in SoundMax audio card that I have disabled in
the BIOS because everything I have read to date is that they just don't
work with FreeBSD. For those of you who have working sound cards, would
you mind sharing the brand name and letting me know how difficult it
was to get the drivers installed  configured? BTW, I'm running FreeBSD
6.0.

Thanks in advance,
Allen D. Tate

Hi Allen.

I have had generally pretty good luck with the Sound Blaster cards from
Creative. I'm not a huge fan of their hardware or their company, but so
far it has worked great with FreeBSD.

I currently have 4 systems with sound:

- Sound Blaster Augidy 2 Platinum (FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE amd64)
- VIA VT8235 Onboard Sound (FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE i386)
- Sound Blaster Live (FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE i386)
- Integrated VIA sound on laptop (FreeBSD 6.0-RC1 i386)

A list of supported cards can be found here:

http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.0R/hardware-i386.html#SOUND

As well as how to get them working:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html

The sound setup is real easy. I usually load the snd_driver kernel
module to find out what driver is necessary, and then if it's a fairly
fast system I'll compile that into the kernel as described in the
handbook. If it's a slower machine that I won't be recompiling the
kernel anyway, then I'll just leave the module loaded and use that.

-Mark

Work out if new sound card supported?

I just got a new pc, and the sound card is not supported in 5.4-RELEASE. Is 
there a way for me (ie a file i can look in) to find out if upgrading the

wont do anything)

Hi!

I just wanted to let you guys know that OSS drivers worked
great for me. Now I can use my hardware spdif/ac3/dts decoder
and watch my favorite movies with breath-taking sound - under
my favorite OS. I guess I'm staying with FreeBSD for good.

Note that OSS is free for home use now. I'd say we should
draw some attention of the FreeBSD community to this fine
solution - as it adds support for tens of pieces of sound hardware.

Andrew P.

P.S.: I've always known that mplayer was a great tool, but
it turns out you can't ever overestimate it. I tried 30-50
video players for windows - and had some problems with
each and everyone of them (lack of caching, decoding
problems, DirectX issues, you name it...) I change to
FreeBSD, try the first player on my mind (mplayer) -
and instead of much anticipated issues (c'mon, DivX
and DTS playback on Unix? Give it up!) - I get instant
and flawless playback. I'm touched :-)

Anything that's compatible with the csa freebsd driver is good to get

Yamaha DS-1E sound card problem

2005-07-01 Thread Sergio A. Reyes-Peniche
Hi,

I'm installing FreeBSD for the first time (version 5.4), although I've
been a Linux user for some years. The machine is an old laptop,
Toshiba Satellite 2805.

I followed the instructions in section 7.2.1 of the handbook, and
found out the needed kernel module is snd_ds1, and modified
/boot/loader.conf accordingly. cat /dev/sndstat gives me:

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: Yamaha DS-1E (YMF754) at memory 0xefdf irq 11 kld snd_ds1
(4p/2r/0v channels duplex default)

However, I have not been able to get any sound from the card. I tried
the different test methods outlined in section 7.2.2 to no avail.
Running mixer(8) gives me:

mixer: /dev/mixer: No such file or directory.

AFAIK I don't need to manually create any nodes in /dev, as I'm
running FreeBSD 5.4 with devfs, so I'm lost here.

Later I found that dmesg gives more information that /dev/sndstat:

pcm0: Yamaha DS-1E (YMF754) port 0xfebc-0xfebf,0xfec0-0xfeff mem
0xefdf-0xefdf7fff irq 11 at device 12.0 on pci0
pcm0: AC97 reset timed out.
pcm0: ac97 codec invalid or not present (id == 0)

I don't think it is a hardware or CMOS setup problem, as I dual-boot
into Windows 2000, and the soundcard works OK.

Could anybody point me to any online resource I could use to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

Basically:
 echo snd_driver_load=YES  /boot/loader.conf
 shutdown -r now
This will load all sound drivers on boot, and you'll get
to find out if yours is supported/recognized or not.  See
snd(4).
Or, without rebooting, you might just try to kldload the
sound.ko module ... but I'm not sure what magic you'd
have to do then for testing ...

Sound card support

2005-05-12 Thread Ionel

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 ?

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.

I resolved this issue by opening up the case and re-seating the card.

(uuu) grep ALC658 sys/dev/sound/pcm/ac97.c
{ 0x414c4780, 0x0f, 0, ALC658,0 },

so, besides I do not know about deep thinks you
detailed below, it seems there is some hope...

Yep, thanks for advice! my ALC658 soundcard worked
great on FreeBSD/x86.

Is it somehow possible to turn on spdif output
on the soundcard? Tuning all available mixer entries
to 100:100 doesn't help. In windows version, there's
no spdif/out level, just a flag (on or off) and two
optional flags (sample rate and pass-through/digital
/analog/off mode). I need digital output very much.

 An interesting mail sent about s/pdif support of
 FreeBSD can be read at: http://lists.freebsd.org/
 pipermail/freebsd-multimedia/2004-March/000921.html

 It seems that there is driver-specific sysctl values;
 if the driver is loaded it should add some of them,
 which can be listed using sysctl -a then greping for
 pcm, or just seeking for info by eye.

I grepped sysctl list and found hw.snd.pcm0.spdif_enabled
switch, but when I change it 0-1, the sound disappears
(both analog and digital outputs are silent). I tried
to play with other hw.snd switches, changed mixer levels
and recsrc, searched the net for a few hours - but nothing

but I'm too lame for that yet.

Anyways, after loading snd_driver dmesg says

Motherboard manual says it's a Realtek ALC658 CODEC (UAJ)

Sound card drivers

2004-12-09 Thread Andrew
Hello!

I've built a new AMD64 PC for me based on Gigabyte K8VT800 Pro motherboard with 
VIA K8T800 chipset. I knew I had to check it out against hardware notes, but I 
didn't. So I installed FreeBSD-5.3, built Xorg and Gnome from ports, and was 
devastated to find out that there's no conceivable way to get my built-in 
Realtek ALC658 sound card working :-( I've installed winxp since and been 
pondering on how to get FreeBSD singing. Please tell me, what's the best way

I need a nice soundcard with a fully functional S/PDIF coaxial and optical 
outputs, that can send unencoded 44.1kHz, 48kHz and encoded AC3 and DTS - all 
latest Realtek sound cards can do that. I need it to be 90-100% supported by 
FreeBSD (bridge driver or not) and I don't care about the price if it's under 
$100 and worth it.

Save me from M$! I've wanted it for months to switch to BSD and only see 
Windows in a PC emulator...

Best wishes,
Andrew

 [I know nothing about your particular hardware, but...]
 Try loading the drivers for the sound devices.
 Just do a kldload snd_driver and it will load all of them.

My kernel was compiled with device sound and device snd_sbc after install 
a Creative Sound Blaster and verify that my on board soundmax is not 
supported by freebsd (handbook, section sound-setup - Audio devices). Even 
thus soundmax, the pcm0 is recognized by dmesg but appears detached 
and /dev/dsp and /dev/sndstat not exist.

any idea?

thanks all,
Zumba.

Hi,

I tried to configure my kernel including device pcm to set soundmax card on 
P4SP-MX SE motherboard but config not runs ok: device pcm is unknown.

Somebody who already installed this device on ASUS motherboard can help me ?
