Message-ID: <7mt8ba$1129$1@twwells.com> Date: Sun, 18 Jul 1999 15:03:02 -0400 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Looks like I was mistaken. I saw someone's post about how the "mixer" command helped with another card and figured I'd give it a try. It worked. :) The command I used was "mixer mic 100" and as soon as I'd done that, I could record sound through my microphone. Two things, though.../dev/audio and /dev/dsp both work but the two seem to do two different things. It appears that /dev/audio handles mu-law encoded sound. But what is the format for /dev/dsp? Also, while I was playing, I had a fairly long "record" session and during it, my machine got screwed up. There were complaints from the SCSI driver and some other oddities which, naturally, never made it into the syslog. The kernel was still running but anything that hit the disk fell over. I had to reset (not control alt del) the machine to get it back. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
