My sound issue is hopefully resolving w/i days. My server boot/load was =
recognizing a sound output device (Dell Soundbar) and will now hopefully =
recognize the soon-to-be-installed into x4 slot sound-card  (Creative =
Sound Blaster Live! SB0060) for its MIDI usage and "mixer" complaint =
(probably related to one of many "checkmark" add-ons with a port I =
installed. We shall see.=20

It looks like the card should work, which is why I took so long to =
qualify which one to get, as far as the chipset and being covered by the =
built-in driver: snd_emu10kx(4).=20

With variables like "used", third-party manufacturer, my Dell T300 =
server, as well as the driver and os release, it will be "in the grooves =
zones" if it works with just the click of my "on" button.=20
Much thanks to fellow listees for directing me to a "higher % of =
success" purchase and level of understanding. ;-)

I ordered the newest (Oct 2015) 2-manual FreeBSD set, having only =
earlier sets from decades back)l; sure, I downloaded them, however, I =
like to take a problem-solution text with me on walks, to appointments, =
and outside to sit with my hardworking squirrel and lofty-viewed bird =
associates.=20

I also scarfed up "The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD =
Operating System" (2nd Edition) by Marshall Kirk McKusick for a better =
notion of the boot/load/run phases, esp. w/r/t nomenclature, structural =
locations, key and vectoring-off processes, stepwise order, =
troubleshooting. That should shed light on my device =
mounting/linking/setting field-of-vision. And it should shut me up for a =
while. ;-)

thanks,
chris
