There are NO FreeBSD drivers for this, so : neither the synth nor the modem will work. You'll need to get PCMCIA cards : for these functions. Actually, I don't think that this is a problem with the 560s. They don't have a built-in modem and if I recall correctly, the sound-chip is a Crystal Audio jobbie (which if I remember is SB compatible). The only StinkPads you have to worry about are the 75x/76x/770 models which have the integrated MWave devices. --Jerry 8) Jerry Alexandratos % - % "Nothing inhabits my (8 8) alexandr@louie.udel.edu % - % thoughts, and oblivion (8 8) darkstar@strauss.udel.edu % - % drives my desires."
