solved was Re: AC97 sound card on 6.1

2006-06-08 Thread Dave

Hello,
   Thanks to all who helped with my sound card issue. The fix was 
load the below driver in /boot/loader.conf:


   #sound driver
snd_ich_load=YES

Thanks.
Dave.

Hi Dave,

Here is my setup.
device  sound   # sound support
device  snd_ich   # AC 97 Support

I am currently running 7.0, though this also worked for me on 6.1


Have Fun,
Sean

 Hi Dave,

   Here is my setup.
 device  sound   # sound support
 device  snd_ich   # AC 97 Support

 It's not works on the _all_ ac97 sound cards. snd_via8233 and some
other modules is support other ac97 cards.

 Dave, please show pciconf -lv on you system.

cat /dev/sndstat

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

It's in the Multimedia section of the handbook.

cat /dev/sndstat

after loading the snd_driver meta module, to see which module 
actually associates itself with your card.


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

That always worked for me with 5.x, but I haven't tried any 
GUI/media stuff on 6.x yet.

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.

Hth,

Duane Whitty

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.


Cheers,
