Ben, Wow! I never realized that Sony (or anybody other than IBM) used that DSP. This looks like a BIOS problem. The BIOS must be configured to have the DSP and the serial device configured. On the IBM, this means that the internal modem requires that two IRQs (normally 3 and 10) be assigned in BIOS. The first is the DSP, normally at 10, and the second is the aerial pseudo-device, normally 3. The mWave driver attempts to get the IRQ values from BIOS, so other values can probably be used, but they MUST be assigned in BIOS as that s the only way the deriver can find them. There is no mechanism to specify them. Make sure that you are not using either IRQ for some other device in either FreeBSD or in BIOS. Let me know if you can get it to work. R.
