When I do kldload snd_ich.ko I get an error message:
kldload: can't load snd_ich.ko: File exists
On doing kldstat -v I can see that the kernel module contains:
pcm/snd_ich.
I think, during bootup the OS cannot associate the particular sound card
(which is built into the motherboard) with the necessary device driver.
Thanks,
amit
