	I have this Tyan S2380 MB with a 750 athlon. I wanted to give it a
shot since I dont think im ever going to see drivers for my turtle beach
montego II+ card in FreeBSD. Thanks to sucky aureal. I can only get this
onboard audio to work with xmms in 8bit 22Khz stereo using the FPU
decoder. I keep trying to find out what the card is capable of doing. Does
anyone know if it's capable of doing 16bit @ 44Khz? Have I got something
missing or misconfigured? Or is this onboard chipset really this junky?

[open-systems]:/usr/ports/audio> cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Oct 10 2000 17:58:01
Installed devices:
pcm0: <VIA VT82C686A AC'97 Audio> at io 0xcc00 irq 14 (1p/1r channels
duplex)

pcm0: <VIA VT82C686A AC'97 Audio> port
0xd400-0xd403,0xd000-0xd003,0xcc00-0xccff irq 14 at device 7.5 on pci0

It works but only in 8bit @ 22Khz mode. Is this the best this onboard
chipset can do?

Thanks for any info.
