This way the normal sound card is found first. OK, now I am confused. This is the output of kldstat: /boot $ sudo kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 17 0xc0400000 a5eb64 kernel 2 1 0xc0e5f000 2f08 speaker.ko 3 1 0xc0e62000 a0d6f8 nvidia.ko 4 3 0xc1870000 29b98 linux.ko 5 1 0xc189a000 53cc sem.ko 6 1 0xc18a0000 6a4f8 acpi.ko 7 1 0xc773f000 7000 linprocfs.ko This is my 'loader.conf' /boot $ cat loader.conf speaker_load="YES" # AT speaker module nvidia_load="YES" # Load nvidia driver sem_load="YES" # Load the sem module for firefox-35 # Superpages vm.pmap.pg_ps_enabled=1. I have sound compiled into my kernel: # Sound device sound device snd_hda # nVidia MCP51 sound support When I attempt to unload the driver, I receive this message: kldunload snd_hda kldunload: can't find file snd_hda Therefore, are you implying that I have to recompile my kernel without the sound device and then load it manually when I boot up? That seems like a bug in FreeBSD. -- Carmel carmel_ny@hotmail.com |::::======= |::::======= |=========== |=========== | The system will be down for 10 days for preventative maintenance.
