Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk OK, I've looked everywhere for information about setting up sound under FreeBSD, but haven't found much at all. I have Soundblaster support compiled into the kernel for my Soundblaster-compatible card (Ensoniq Soundscape). I get the following lines when I boot: ------------ sb0 at 0x220 irq 9 on isa sb0: sbxvi0 not found sbmidi0 not found at 0x330 ------------ Here are the pertinent lines in my kernel source: ------------ controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 9 device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 3 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 ------------ Also, I executed "sh MAKEDEV snd0" from the /dev directory to create the device nodes, but I still don't see /dev/snd0 as a device. Is snd0 supposed to be an actual device, or is it merely a parameter to tell MAKEDEV which devices to create? Any help will be greatly appreciated...thanks! ________________________________________________________ Justin Ashworth, justin@structured.net _____________ "Well, you can get away with mistakes as an engineer...
