Stephane Raimbault:
 |    I've been tinkering with my kernel and was wondering how to get my
 |Creative Sound Blaster 32 to work with FreeBSD.  I was reading the
 |HandBook that comes with FBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE and it had sound blaster
 |16.  I inserted the lines like it is writen in the handbook.  the SB16
 |drivers seem to find the soundcard. and everything seems to work all
 |right.  But I don't know how to test the sound card.

Looks like you got your kernel built and installed fine.

To exercise your soundcard, run any FreeBSD-ready audio app.  For a start,
check out the packages in:

         ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/packages-2.2.2/audio

Also, most Linux audio apps will work too if you have Linux emulation built
into your kernel, and there are other apps out on the net
