Sorry, if you did reply to this question earlier, I'd appreciate if you could do so again. Sorry. Thank you for your patience. My sound doesn't work. I've been searching around google, I've tried different things still no sound. This is some of my info. I have a Sound Blaster Live with Digital Audio Output. I read the handbook, and tried to follow the page about setting up the Sound Card. I added device pcm to my kernel. Then I rebuilt the kernel. Here's my output, and it seems my computer recognizes the device. grep pcm /var/run/dmesg.boot pcm0: port 0xeec0-0xeedf irq 9 at device 9.0 on pci0 pcm0: Then I ran cd /dev sh MAKEDEV snd0 I cd to my /dev directory and did an ls -la to all the device nodes the handbook says I should have: here's the output. /dev#ls -la audio lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Apr 14 18:03 audio -> audio0 /dev#ls -la dsp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4 Apr 14 18:03 dsp -> dsp0 /dev#ls -la dspW lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 5 Apr 14 18:03 dspW -> dspW0 /dev#ls -la midi ls: midi: No such file or directory /dev#ls -la mixer lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Apr 14 18:03 mixer -> mixer0 /dev#ls -la music lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 6 Apr 14 18:03 music -> music0 /dev#ls -la sequencer lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 10 Apr 14 18:03 sequencer -> sequencer0 /dev#ls -la pss lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 4 Apr 14 18:03 pss -> pss0 I noticed, it didn't create a midi device node, this might be my problem. I noticed other people had this problem, though I found no solutions for it. Here's some more output, hopefully this helps someone.. I hope I gave enough information, and any suggestions or replies would be appreciated. cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0xeec0 irq 9 (4p/2r/0v channels duplex) dmesg cal[2831]: fatal: open database /etc/aliases.db: No such file or directory Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop...stopped Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `bufdaemon' to stop...stopped Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop...stopped syncing disks... 1 done Uptime: 2h36m18s Rebooting...
