This is the second BETA release for the GUS PnP Pro. If you own any other soundcard or are not running *FreeBSD 2.1-stable* don't bother using this sound driver. If you are running FreeBSD 2.2xx this driver will not compile . The difference between a GUS PnP and GUS PnP PRO is that the GUS PnP Pro has 512kb of memory. To configure in your /sys/i386/conf/ have: controller snd0 device gus0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 11 drq 1 flags 0x3 vector gusintr the gus pnp is fully software configurable and the above configuration is setup for full duplex audio. The dma channel settings are: drq 1 --- DMA channel for playback flags 0x3 --- DMAN channel for recording *DONT use dma channels greater than 4 because the driver is not going to work* To unpack: cd /sys/i386/isa mv sound sound.old tar -xzf guspnp.tar.gz ***** NO NEED TO CONFIGURE THE DRIVER -- that is to modify ******** ***** /sys/i386/isa/sound/local.h ******** After you edit the kernel config file just type: config cd /sys/compile/ make make install After I managed to get dmas greater than 4 to work all you will need to configure the gus pnp is : controller snd0 device gus0 at isa? vector gusintr You should use vat-4.0b1a available on : ftp.star-gate.com:/pub/vat-4.0b1a.gz The mic input level setting does not work with this release . The issue is the lack of documentation on how to properly initialize the mixer sub-system found on the GUS PnP. As for reporting back problems it looks like I am going to get very busy real soon so the sooner people report problems the greater the possibility that I may fix the problems soon. Have fun, Amancio
