Working directly with device drivers in UNIX has been the bane of my existance for some time now. Trying to keep all the abreviations straight seems like a full time job. Anyway, I have a Gravis Ultrasound and I want to get it working on my FreeBSD partition. I've done the "MAKEDEV sndgus0" which created a handful of devices in /dev. Then I installed rplay and fired up the server to play sounds through /dev/dsp. Everything I throw at it, however, always comes out as a dull static roar. Anybody have any insights in how to get sound working correctly on FreeBSD? Do I need additional software? RPlay says it understands .WAVs and that's about all I have to throw at it right now.
