Hey. I've got a Soundblaster AWE64 PNP. I was using the Voxware drivers under 3.4-STABLE, and it worked perfectly. Using essentially the same drivers in essentially the same configuration on the same computer the sound card has stopped working. Nothing can open /dev/dsp, and 'cat /dev/sndstat' reports 'Device not configured'. I have used MAKEDEV to create the appropriate devices. Dmesg snippet: sb_reset_dsp failed sb_reset_dsp failed awe0 at port 0x620 on isa0 AWE32: not detected awe0: driver is using old-style compatability shims 'uname -a': FreeBSD spike.brainlink.com 4.0-STABLE FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE #0: Sun May 7 18:50:58 EDT 2000 root@spike.brainlink.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ZALEM4 i386 The relevant parts of the kernel configuration: device snd device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 device awe0 at isa? port 0x620 device opl0 at isa? port 0x388 I've tried: 1. The above with and without 'options PNPBIOS'. 2. Enabling only 'device pcm', with and without explicit irq/drq/port settings. 3. Enabling 'device pcm' and 'device sbc0' I'm stumped. Can anyone tell me what's causing the 'sb_reset_dsp failed' messages and which drivers I should be using? Is Voxware deprecated in favor of pcm? Have other people had similar problems with these cards? I have attached my full kernel config file, and I'm not subscribed to -questions so please cc: directly to me.
