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.

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.

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 -- GnuPG Public Key: http://www.mkproductions.org/mk_pubkey.asc Internet Radio: Party107 (Trance/Electronic) - http://www.party107.com Rock 101.9 The Edge (Rock) - http://www.rock1019.net IRC: MIXXnet IRC Network - irc.mixxnet.net (Nick: MIXX941) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

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.

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. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

Re: Sound card drivers

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

Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble controlling the sound level of my sound card,
specifically volume adjustments using mixer and other volume control
tools don't change the actual volume.
For example when playing a MP3 at 1% volume the sound is unbearably
loud and moving the volume to 100% doesn't affect the volume, at 0%
there is no sound.
I have tried using mixer with no -f argument and also tried
adjusting the volume for each dsp entry in /dev with no effect.

Re: sound-card // dsp1
I have 4 vchans, but this won't help. Both Enemy Territory and teamSpeak will put dsp0(.x*) in playback/recording, and this isn't possible. I need either a dsp1 device or a way to make enemy territory launch in playback only. Is there a way to create the dsp1 device?

Increasing the vchans didn't work, this seems to work only for playback (can have xmms,teamspeak,mplayer.. but when I lauch Enemy Territory, it will be soundless, because it opens dsp in rw and TeamSpeak already has dsp in rw) Someone suggested using artsdsp, but: /data/games/enemy-territory/et.x86: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/local/lib/libartsdsp.so.0: ELF file OS ABI invalid .. I've been trying to find a way around this for 4 hours now and still nothing :-) So, perhaps someone knows the answer to this one ? Regards The kernel can mix your sounds, if you use virtual sound channels such as /dev/dsp0.x . Check out the sysctl's hw.snd.pcm0.vchans and hw.snd.maxautovchans. If your programs don't access the sound-devices directly, you could also use something like Esound (ports/audio/esound).

Re: sound card (WAS: FreeBSD 4.10 RELEASE questions)

I have a confusing situation here with the new kernel. I just upgraded to 4.10, and in the process, decided to get a moderately updated kernel config. Particularly, I wanted to try to get my sound working again. Here's the thing. I have the following lines in my kernel config: device pcm [deleted details] Problem is that I'm not sure if I should have the following: device pcm0 at isa? irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0 Everything after pcm0 is there for the benefit of ISA cards that are not PNP-aware. Your device pcm should be entirely adequate for a PCI card that does correct PNP configuration. It certainly works for me. Also, if your system doesn't physically have SIO2 or SIO3, you can remove those statements (which were in the details I deleted above). Note that my fxp0 is using irq 10. Should I just change the irq? Should I leave it and/or the PNPBIOS line out? My system shows several unknown devices which are presumably various features of the motherboard that I'm not using, so don't be too concerned about the unknown device. PCI devices are assigned IRQs dynamically, and you should not need to worry about which device ended up on which IRQ as long as it doesn't conflict with an ISA device in your system. If dmesg.boot shows a pcm0 device somewhere then your sound card should be working. E.g.: # grep pcm0 /var/run/dmesg.boot pcm0: VIA VT8235 port 0xe000-0xe0ff irq 5 at device 17.5 on pci0 pcm0: Avance Log\M-ic ALC650 AC97 Codec # I believe that in 4.10 you still have to do # cd /dev # sh MAKEDEV snd0 to populate /dev with the appropriate devices after you get the driver loading properly (snd0 is not actually one of them, so don't look for it). I guess you're familiar with that, since you had your sound working in the past, but maybe you forgot. After you've done that, something like # cat /dev/sndstat should tell you what you ended up with, in its own cryptic way. To get the PCI card correctly recognized, you may need to play with the PNP BIOS setting in your BIOS configuration, although I don't think that's your problem in this case. If your sound card actually is an ISA device, you need to set the IRQ and possibly DRQ settings in the config line to what the card is expecting. You may also have to go into your device and reserve that IRQ for your ISA device to keep it from being assigned to a PnP device. I'm sure there's some pertinent details I'm leaving out, so don't hesitate to let me know what it is. Thanks for the feedback. I hope that helps.

RE: Sound card
Hi Eric, I'm so tired recently that I've made this typo writing the posting. It's device, of course, not options, my kernel config is OK. Following the advice found in the list archive, I tried to manually load snd_driver.ko using kldload - snd_driver.ko loaded snd_maestro3.ko. I put this command in loader.conf, but nothing changed. Then, as someone suggested here, I tried to rebuild kernel with neither pcm nor sbc and loading driver manually - it didn't help. Again - device pcm in kernel config, snd_maestro3_load=YES in loader.conf and the result is: [EMAIL PROTECTED] jarek] kldstat Id Refs AddressSize Name 1 15 0xc010 614554 kernel 21 0xc0715000 8404 snd_maestro3.ko 31 0xc071e000 7e40 mac_biba.ko 41 0xc0726000 503c mac_bsdextended.ko 51 0xc072c000 7d1c mac_mls.ko 61 0xc0734000 4a30cacpi.ko 71 0xc43aa000 18000linux.ko dmesg: Preloaded elf module /boot/kernel/snd_maestro3.ko at 0xc07801f4. pcm0: OPTi931 at port 0xe8d-0xe8f,0x220-0x22f,0x380-0x38b, 0x534-0x537 irq 5 drq 1,0 on isa0 AD_WAIT_INIT FAILED 1002000 0xff Every time I got this error and no sound...

Regards to all Andrew Kozak The fact that your card shows up in /dev/sndstat and xmms doesn't complain is a good sign. Install a mixer program and check that none of the channels are muted or turned all the way down. Also check that your speakers are plugged into the speaker jack rather than the mic jack (etc).

Re: Sound card setting on FreeBSD5.0 ???

The MB is Abit NF7-S based on nForce2 chipset. The sound card is on board: AC 97 CODEC on board I've compiled the KERNEL with device pcm in order to get the audio running. But when I reboot the system and then I check for the device, I see nothing: grep pcm /var/run/dmesg.boot - shows no pcm device dmesg | grep pcm - no device listed Could anyone advice me what can be the problem and how to get it running??? Pcm is not the entire sound card driver, only a common portion of it. Use kldload snd_driver and I believe every /boot/kernel/snd_* module will be loaded. *Then* see if your sound works. Once you get that working then you can start optimizing. Visit dmesg for clues as to exactly which module is needed for your hardware and try loading that. Rather than reboot try kldunload(8). Once I had mine figured out then in /kernel/loader.conf I put this one line: snd_es137x_load=YES My system looks like this: # kldstat Id Refs AddressSize Name 1 11 0xc010 381650 kernel 21 0xc0482000 6190 snd_es137x.ko 32 0xc0489000 1d320snd_pcm.ko 41 0xc04a7000 4a30cacpi.ko 51 0xc34bc000 2000 blank_saver.ko 61 0xc3578000 18000linux.ko # Notice snd_es137x.ko caused snd_pcm.ko to be loaded without otherwise being told to load. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] = The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: sound card blocking problem
Hi, On Fri, Feb 21, 2003 at 09:00:29AM -0600, Brian Henning wrote: I noticed that is FBSD4.7 that when i am using the sound device in one process that the system blocks that device so no other processes can use the sound device until that process is killed. I know that in windows 2000 that is not the case, it lets multilple processes have control of the sound device at the same time. Is there a way to make FBSD4.7 have this functionality? Does this question make any sense? Do you mean you get the device busy or whatever the message is? Unfortunately I don't think you can do much about that. If a piece of software opens /dev/dsp when it starts and doesn't close it until it finishes then nothing else will be able to write to /dev/dsp. Have a look at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html for some info on how to set up virtual channels. This is a way of having several dsp devices (/dev/dsp0.x where x is between 0 and some maximum that you specify) that are multiplixed through the one physical dsp device. Then you should set your various pieces of software to use different dsp devices (e.g. xmms might use /dev/dsp0.0, your window manager's sound server might use /dev/dsp0.1, etc). If you've got an SBLive (or probably any modern sound card) they you actually have around 48 hardware channels (i.e. 48 channels similar to the vchans mentioned above, except that they're mixed on the hardware device, freeing up the CPU). Unfortunately I don't think the current SBLive driver for FreeBSD supports utilising more than one hardware channel (current meaning even the one in 5.0). I think the way the OSS and ALSA drivers do it (I can't remember which - one of them does it this way at the very least) is to allow /dev/dsp to be opened multiple times. I'm going to have a look at putting this support in soon (or at least try to understand what's going on in the current driver - maybe it's in there already; I've never done any kernel hacking before). cheers sam To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Thanks for the help Ian Barnes You're not alone :) As far as I know, the pcm(4) driver currently only supports 2 channels, which means your rear speakers will not be getting a signal. It might be a good thing to submit a PR and remind the developers that people want extra channel support, although I am sure they are working on it :) Will -- Willie Viljoen Freelance IT Consultant 214 Paul Kruger Avenue, Universitas Bloemfontein 9321 South Africa +27 51 522 15 60 +27 51 522 44 36 (after hours) +27 82 404 03 27 (mobile) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Re: Sound card question
Is a PCI sound blaster card supported? I've found that FreeBSD 4.7 so far has supported every odd sound card I've thrown its way. Even (especially!) those on-board sound things built into motherboards and laptops these days. FreeBSD supports them all (and Windows usually doesn't without the special CD-Rom from the motherboard manufacturer.) Just add device pcm to the end of the kernel conf file, build a new kernel, and I'll bet almost any sound card will work on reboot.
