I filed a PR with patches, and you can get them with this command: fetch -o ichp "http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=35012&f=raw" then edit ichp to delete either the -current or -stable patches. The ich driver in -stable doesn't record, and the differences between the two patches is mostly adding the changes for recording -current to -stable. If you don't want that - and don't want to add extra code from -current - you can use the patches for -current on -stable, but will have to apply one of the patches by hand. I've had at least one report of that working. The one thing I'm watching for is if it reports DMA overruns. I believe the newpcm architecture avoids the situation that can cause that on the SiS chips, but I'm not positive. If it happens, I've got a fix. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
