I tried to email this list before, buy my email never showed up for some reason. I have just purchased a Videologic SonicXplosion, which is a rebadged Terratec SixPack. It uses the CS4630 chipset, which doesn't appear to be supported, or mentioned in the documentation. The csa bridge driver allows the generic audio drivers including pcm(4) to attach to the following PCI sound cards: o Crystal Semiconductor CS461x/462x Audio Accelerator o Crystal Semiconductor CS428x Audio Controller Some onboard CS4610 chips accompany with not CS4297 AC97 codec but CS423x ISA codec. Such the configuration is not supported by csa yet. Regards, Quinn Ellis To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
