Date: Fri, 4 Dec 1998 11:54:51 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2232.9) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org What would be the "best supported sound card" under FreeBSD? I'm looking for something inexpensive that'll let me play Midi files, WAV-type files (to have sound in whichever WindowManager I use, or play MP3 files). Also CD support, and a DSP to play games whenever that can happen. I was thinking of a Yamaha OPL3 based sound card, but I hear they aren't fully supported. I know most of the latest SB-type sound cards aren't supported very well since Creative Labs, in it's infinite wisdom, has decided not to produce proper info on their new chipsets, so I know a cheap little SB is also out of the question. Any ideas? TIA, Manu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
