If you like you can retrieve the linux sound driver version 3.0 which
Jim and I ported to freebsd. About vat, we will like to dump native
sound support for vat mostly because we don't have the sources.
Someday Van Jacobson, is going to release the sources for vat and
at that point it will be a trivial exercise to provide solid vat
support for FreeBSD.
On a good light , vat has a socket interface which a sound app can talk to and
vmix (a pre-alpha release) is Jim's first cut at such a program. The
advantage of using vmix with vat is that in theory it should support
all sound cards supported in Voxware.
Enjoy,
Amancio

I think the code is at least as good as what is in -current. I have only
been able to test it with pas-16, gus, and gus-max cards. I don't have
a sb card here. If you are going to check it into -current, please note
that I changed the LINT/config options a bit (see the sound/freebsd directory).
I also included a postscript file in the distribution (ultrawrd.ps)
which is the gus sdk rev 2.22. The gus stuff (especially the gus max stuff)
could still use a bit of work. If there is anyone with a gus-max card
and some time, let me know. I can point you toward the things that need
to be done.
Also, vmix is really a pre-alpha type release. It needs a lot of work yet.
If someone out there has a sb card and would like to work with the mbone tools,
let me know. Vmix could easily be modified to input from the sb card and
output to the speaker via the pcaudio driver.
If you have trouble getting to ftp.best.com, I put a copy of this stuff
on our ftp site. Check ftp://ftp.cs.uwm.edu/pub/FreeBSD for details.
