The first breakage was with the introduction of newmidi IIRC. The mixer worked, but any dsp related functions were broken. See: sys/dev/sound/isa/es1888.c rev 1.3  In recent kernel even the mixer is dead and the soundcard is left in a state where all volumes are zeroed, preventing audio CD playing as well. See: sys/dev/sound/isa/es1888.c rev 1.4 Relevant kernel config options: options PNPBIOS controller isa0 controller eisa0 controller pci0 controller pnp0 device pcm0 I have to re-enable sbc0 to see if any changes therein apply to ESS as well. Should I have sbc0 in the first place? -- Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ The FreeBSD project mailto:marcel@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
