( I have omitted the .ko extension because you don't need to specify it.) This should load the necessary sound modules for your sb-live. I use the same card in another box, but not with FreeBSD, so If I missed something, I hope someone else jumps in to correct me. You will also need to make sure your permissions allow you to use the sound device as user. -- kometboy kometboy@neo.rr.com (Debian GNU/Linux) leckert@neo.rr.com (FreeBSD) http://home.neo.rr.com/leckert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
