next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I just bought a new Plug-n-Play Soundblaster Awe32
for my computer, and am trying to get it set up
under FreeBSD 2.0.5. I used the settings for
the kernel config lines from someone else who has
a non-PnP Awe 32, and configured the port, irq, and dma's
according to what Windows 95 tells me the card is set to.
Unfortunately it still doesn't recognise the card..
Figuring the PnP bios was probably confusing the detect
code, I borrowed the older Awe 32, and my kernel found
his card fine.. So, my questions are:
1) Is there some relatively simple change I can make to
the kernel detect code so that freebsd can find my
awe 32?
2) Will this be a problem on all PnP cards out there?
3) Does 2.1 handle PnP cards correctly? Or even better
does it handle the Awe 32 Pnp card? :^)
Thanks for any help.
Steve
