Thank you Pieter! Also thank you trasz@FreeBSD.org <mailto:trasz@FreeBSD.org?subject=FreeBSD%20Port:%20audio/oss> the maintainer of this port. I first did what Pieter suggested: I downloaded and installed the driver from opensound. Pieter wrote: Unfortunately the Audigy SE is not supported. You can try the audio/emu10kx port, but last time I tried it wouldn't work either. As far as I know the only way to make it work is to install 4Front's OSS drivers from www.opensound.com. Hope this helps, Pieter de Goeje Then i did try all of the ossinfo, osson and off, ossplay, osstest etc.. When I ran osstest there were sound!! When the port turned up at freshports.org I installed that port and I added into /etc/rc.conf the line *oss_enable="YES"* as stated in the terminal after the port was registered. Rebooted Performed *osstest* with good result. *However I must be misunderstanding something.* When I try to run for example gxine there is *NO* sound and there are no sound in programme-execution which there usually are when one is starting an app in KDE. Mysoundcard is: Creative SoundBlaster Audigy *SE *24-bit capability. Don't really know if this is the correct forum for this question but is there someone who knows what kind of mistake I am making? I really want to be able to have sound in my PC.
