The good part about it is that it has "special" guarantee that at least will ensure that all playback path are laid out properly. Things like this (especially the parser) can be refactored and improved in near future. How about this one: replace your sys/dev/sound/pci/hda/hdac.c and sys/dev/sound/pci/hda/hdac_private.h with: http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/test/hdac_stac9220_wesley.c (hdac.c) http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/test/hdac_private.h -- Ariff Abdullah FreeBSD ... Recording in stereo is obviously too advanced and confusing for us idiot ***** users :P ........ --Signature=_Sat__30_Sep_2006_03_49_53_+0800_s2yMXPVEOz_UNOKP Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFFHXjllr+deMUwTNoRApqAAJ9lcM/PYZAWNofeLG3X1KBH50SvxQCeL65M 9/0wjqCeqpBSAsu+gTFleQE= =1rs5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Sat__30_Sep_2006_03_49_53_+0800_s2yMXPVEOz_UNOKP--
