Great! But what does " recompile the kernel with device pcm" mean? :(

Cheers,

Mazen

It would be great if you can tell us what sound chipset is there in the
laptop. If you can't make that out, then recompile the kernel with

device pcm

Most modern sound chipsets are supported by pcm. Refer to the handbook
for help on kernel recompiling

Subject: Sound not working on laptop

Hi,

Sound is not working on my laptop that has FreeBSD 4.9 installed on. I
want to check the detected driver (if any) by the system and configure
it to use the right one.

How can this be done whether by using KDE or on the command line?

Thanks in advance.
