Re: PNP Crystal soundcard detection problem in 5.1Release
G'day Roman, I'm back home now and after patching some sshd daemons I have checked my laptop configuration.

My messages have one subtle difference for the CSC: unknown: can't assign resources (port) unknown: at port 0x220-0x22f,0x388-0x38b,0x530-0x537 on isa0 I think this is due to the device.hints (see below). > In /boot/devices.hints: > ... > hint.pcm.0.at="isa" > hint.pcm.0.irq="5" > hint.pcm.0.drq="1" > hint.pcm.0.flags="0x0" I didn't remember till I came home and looked, but I did define hints for the sbc device as follows: ~$ grep sbc /boot/device.hints hint.sbc.0.at="isa" hint.sbc.0.port="0x220" hint.sbc.0.irq="5" hint.sbc.0.drq="1" hint.sbc.0.flags="0x15" There are no hints defined for the pcm device. My guess is that this is the key thing you need. I should point out that I get sound both with and without ACPI enabled. > p.s. maybe you will consider possible sharing you kernel configuration > file and maybe BIOS settings, coz we have same model and its even more > strange that its not working. I think its just the device.hints for the sbc device that will fix things for you. If it still doesn't work after you try that, I am happy to send you all the config files you want. Tell me how it goes! Cheers, Greg ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Hi Roman, On Tue, Sep 16, 2003 at 06:20:53PM +0300, Roman Malytskyy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have the very same model! 5.1-RELEASE could problem be here? I got a deal on a refurbished model with a 3 year international warranty from Dell when I was living in the U.S. It has been a workhorse for me for years now. I can't be sure now, but I'm fairly certain I had sound working when I installed 5.1-RELEASE. I then upgraded to current to support my 54g (Atheros) wireless card. > I've updated my FlashBIOS from A03 to version A12 (from DELL website), > I've added to the end of config-file > > device pcm > device sbc I don't have my laptop with me right now, but I'm fairly sure I am running the A12 bios also. > Verbose booting keeps giving: > ... > unknown: can't assign resources (port) > unknown: at port 0x378-0x37f on isa0 > unknown: can't assign resources (irq) > unknown: at port 0x220-0x22f,0x388-0x38b,0x530-0x537 irq 5 on isa0 > unknown: failed to probe at port 0x210-0x217 on isa0 > unknown: can't assign resources (port) > unknown: at port 0x3f2-0x3f5 on isa0 I will do a verbose boot when I get home again (where my laptop is) and check what mine says. > I have ACPI disabled, Mine is enabled (I just ignore the initial error messages).

Note however, that my detection message from dmesg (see my first email) says: sbc0: at port 0x220-0x22f irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 on isa0 so you might want to change hint.pcm.0.flags. I don't know if you also need hints for the sbc device? > The only additional hardware I have installed is PS/2 mouse and > Surecom PCMCIA Ethernet adapter (model ep428x, which is detected as > rl0) I have at various times a mouse, external display, pcmcia modem, Trendnet ethernet card (also rl0).

Certainly I can do that as well as check other the other things I noted above as soon as I get to my laptop at home.

I never got it to work with "device csa", but in the distant past running 4-stable my sound had worked with options PNPBIOS device pcm Then it stopped working for a while. I've never managed to get it working with only "device pcm" again. But now I am running 5-current with the following device pcm device sbc and my card is found as a soundblaster pro. See dmesg extract: sbc0: at port 0x220-0x22f irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 on isa0 pcm0: on sbc0 and 5>[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 bufsz 4096 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) Everything works great. So give this a go and see what happens.
