Is this a limitation of the pcm driver, mpg123, my hardware, or a combination thereof? $ cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Feb 14 2000 21:05:31 Installed devices: pcm0: at irq 10 (1p/1r channels duplex) pcm1: <(null)> (mixer only) $ dmesg | grep csa csa0: mem 0xfea00000-0xfeafffff,0xfebfd000-0xfebfdfff irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0 pcm0: on csa0 Thanks, Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
