Hello,
I have had some trouble getting sound to work on
4.0-RELEASE. Here
is my whole story. I spent many hours reading the mail
groups and t
ried many things.
I have a FICA VA-503+ board with an AMD K6-2 300 MHz
with 64 MB RAM
. I have a Creative CT4810 (a.k.a ES1371) PCI and have
"PNP OS" tur
ned off in the BIOS.
Here is the important part of my kernel config file:
# Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16
device pcm
oanorth:mcellroy> uname -a
FreeBSD oanorth 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #0:
Sun Apr 22 21:2
3:08 PDT 2001
mcellroy@oanorth:/usr/src/sys/compile/KERNEL_4.0_
22_APR_2001 i386
I edited /usr/src/sys/dev/sound/pci/es137x.c to
include the code fo
r the 1371. I know 4.2 includes the code, but I could
not get 4.2 t
o build.
oanorth:mcellroy> grep ES1371_PCI_ID3 es137x.c
#define ES1371_PCI_ID3 0x58801274
pci_get_devid(dev) == ES1371_PCI_ID3) {
pci_get_devid(dev) == ES1371_PCI_ID3) {
After rebuilding the 4.0 kernel:
oanorth:mcellroy> dmesg | grep pcm
pcm0: <AudioPCI ES1371> port 0xe800-0xe83f irq 10 at
device 8.0 on
pci0
pcm0: ac97 codec reports dac not ready
After 'runas ./MAKEDEV snd0':
oanorth:mcellroy> cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Apr 22 2001 21:21:28
Installed devices:
pcm0: <AudioPCI ES1371> at io 0xe800 irq 10 (1p/1r
channels duplex)
oanorth:mcellroy> mixer pcm 100 vol 100
Setting the mixer pcm to 100:100.
Setting the mixer vol to 100:100.
Then I try to cat a file to the device:
oanorth:mcellroy> ll /dev/dsp0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 3 Apr 22 21:34
/dev/dsp0
oanorth:mcellroy> cat beaming.au > /dev/dsp0
And it pauses as if it is playing but no sound comes
from the
Creative Labs unamplified speakers. I'm sort of at a
loss here
as to what to do next. The sound card works in Win98
with no
problems, but I really want to get it working in
FreeBSD.
Thanks,
Jon McEllroy
