Hi all, I have installed 5.3 release and KDE 3.3 on a NEC machine (i386) with an integrated sound chip. When I start KDE, i get the following error message : Sound server informational message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such file or directory) The sound server will continue, using the null output device I assume I need to load a kernel module (handbook wise). The integrated sound chip on my motherboard is labeled "Silicon Integrated Systems (SIS) sound controller" and, under Linux, the driver is snd-intel8x0 It doesn't seem to appear in the hardware compatibility list for 5.3 release, although it seems to be a rather common component. Does anyone know which FreeBSD driver I should use and if I'm on the right track ? Thanks, Edward
