static is better than nothing, it means that at least the dma is
correctly configured and connected.
i suggest the following experiment:
cat /dev/dspW > /dev/dspW
in a window, and play with "mixer" in another one to see/set the levels
and recording sources.
> use the port. The console says: "write denied, another writer is in"
this usually happens when there is another process using the device and
did not properly terminate (possibly because it is not getting an
interrupt to terminate, and this is possibly due to misconfigured dma,
but in this case you would get no static...). check with "ps" or "top"
what's going on.

see above, in addition to the usual stupid things that one could do
(plug in the wrong port, no power on the mic if it has one,
non-working mic because of broken cable...)

Well, you could fiddle with Luigi's, so that it is a much better alternative
than Voxware, and then we could kill Voxware and only have one :)
I would think that _another_ sound system would be a bit silly :(

Hi,
I found a web page which has a patch for Linux to manipulate the MTRRs on a
PPro and PII.
It's at http:/http://glide.xxedgexx.com/MTRR.html
I also notice that Linux has the ability to cat the pci device, and it prints
out some info about your PCI cards (such as the memory location they are
mapped to :) It would be neat if we could do this, esp. if a utility to
manipulate MTRR's is being written.
Sorry for mailing this to the whole list, but I forget who said they where
interested in adding such support..

My old instructions on how to setup a voice answering machine
ftp://rah.star-gate.com/pub/Voice.FAQ
mgetty home page
http://www.leo.org/~doering/mgetty/index.html
http://www.vix.com/hylafax/
mgetty/vgetty is okay however I think that hylafax is easier to use
than vgetty. There are hooks on hylafax to redirect voice calls to
a "third party program" such as vgetty perhaps for the short term
this is the best way to proceed.
At my ftp site, there is an old version of mgetty + vgetty which I believed
the voice functions to work reliably . Tomorrow when I have more
time I will built it, test it and report back to the mailing list.
This can serve as a starting point to debug the current vgetty.
Task List:
1. End User Documentation
2. Installation/Customization
3. First Cut . use hylafax/vgetty . The vgetty can be the one in
my ftp site: ftp://rah.star-gate.com/pub/mgetty097-Jun12.tar.gz
Provide what I have over here : caller id support , forward
voice messages to mail recipient. Keep log of all incoming
calls -- this is just a simple tcl/tk program or java program
to display caller ID and log to a file.
3.a graphical customization or management of the voice answering
system.
4. Java stand alone application and applet to play back audio messages
First time around it will suffice to playback messages from a
directory . Second version should use a java database interface to
store and retrieve messages --- the idea here is to provide an
enterprise-wide answering machine. There are a couple of graphic
java packages which are capable of playing back audio and generate
a nice wave display so for know just pick one. For storing
audio messages perhaps postgress will suffice. There is a java jdbc
interface to postgress as well as a nice tcl/tk frontend for managing
postgress databases.
5. Once we reached a sufficient end-user level functionaliy write a nice web
page on how to use the answering machine . The web page should
be of sufficient quality to merit its inclusion at wwww.freebsd.org.
I think that this is enough to kick off the voice answering machine
project and I need help.
Tnks,
Amancio

It is trivial to set the MTRR's. We don't have smp support yet for the
necessary IPI mechanism. I am working on significant SMP upgrades,
including that.
The issue regarding WC mode is that we need to agree upon an API for
XFree to specify the appropriate modes for the cards. The PCI cards
don't do a very good job in specifying what they would like to have,
so this will have to be an XFree issue. All we need to do is to add
kernel support, but again, that is pretty easy.
In the short-term, you can use the fastvid stuff that is floating
around, but alas it is only fully effective on UP kernels (it works
on SMP kernels, but only for one processor.)
I am doing a lot of things right now, making SMP work very well,
within the current architectural constraints. In some cases, I
am making the current architectural constraints less of a problem.

Yeah, I don't think that XFree is the only consumer either.. The main one, but
not the only one..
So how do we go about designing the API? Just invent one and pass it around?
The Linux one is fairly hacky, so perhaps integrating it into the pci device
with an ioctl would be better. I don't think it would be too hard for the
Linux guys to alter their pci device driver to support it..

Well, I could if I added it to my kernel :)

It is an LKM, so shouldn't be a problem.

Mmm.. speedy :)
xengine goes from 148rpm to 280rpm when fastvid is installed.
This is on a PII/266 in a SuperMicro P6SLS (LX chipset). The graphics card is
a Matrox Millenium II (PCI) with 4Mb of RAM.
The display is 8-bit depth at 1280x1024, the xengine size is 1152x900.
The speedup factor is 1.89, mmm :)

This is a great book to learn Java plus the cdrom books are also available on
the web:
http://online-books.ora.com/mod-bin/books.mod/javaref/
(you have to buy the Java in a Nutshell Deluxe Edition or
pay to access the on-line books)
I paid $80 for the Java in a NutShell Deluxe Edition
Title: Java In A NutShell Deluxe Edition
Includes 5 books in cdrom :
Java in a NutShell, 2nd edition
Exploring Java
Java Fundamental Classes
Java AWT Reference covers jdk 1.0.2 and jdk 1.1
Java Language Reference , 2nd Edition
Author: David Flanagan
Publisher: O'Reilly
http: http://online-books.ora.com/mod-bin/books.mod/javaref/
Java for FreeBSD is at:
http://www.freebsd.org/java
And the web page has pointers on how to get Sun's Java Workshop working
on FreeBSD. Java Workshop is an IDE written in Java.
The long range plan is to deploy technology to ease application development
on FreeBSD and this includes java multimedia applications.

I just go thru testing the old mgetty+vgetty at my ftp site and it
appears to work rather well so the next step is to figured
out why the new vgetty records badly.

I did a crude patch for using an IGMP tunnel with PPP in alias mode. basically,
this patch causes a bypassing the alias code then dealing with a IGMP input
packet). I also added traces for IGMP packets.
the context diff for this is at:

I am finally breaking down and getting a sound card and I want to make
sure that I get a good one that operates well on FBSD. Are there
any suggestions?
I have heard there is two sets of drivers (kinda like the CAM project
way it is being developed). Is this true, what is the difference, which
should I use, if so?
Thanks,
Jay

Amanico,
I saw your post in last night's FreeBSD-hacker's digest about doing
an answering machine project...
I originally followed your FAQ, which lead me to vgetty, which I'm
now using for both of my voice modems. I'm also neck deep in a project
(locally) to provide a call-tree (aka - voice mail jail) for a Non-Profit
organization via the vgetty API, with an interface I'm writing myself...
I'd be curious to see why you'd reinvent the wheel when vgetty actually
does a halfway decent job. Anyhow, let me know. I might be interested in
lending a hand/contributing some code. I'm not on the multimedia list, so
please drop me a line.
-Brian

Well, vgetty does a half decent job and the thing that erks me
the most is the quality of the releases.

Make sure the BIOS is set to configure PnP devices itself - i.e., non PnP
OS mode. Had the same problem on this Trashiba until I toggled that.
Same Vendor ID too -- Luigi, you want to add that to the probe?

if you "only" want full duplex audio (no synth etc.) my suggestion
is to get a WSS clone, e.g. Yamaha, A/Open AW35, or OPTI931. All
these work fine with my "pcm" driver.

the "pcm" driver is easier to configure and works well with full duplex
cards. The other one has support for synth and wavetable but less
compatible with newer cards.

Hi. I want to install vat AudioFile. So that, I had downloaded
AF3R1.tar.Z. But, I don't know how to install it, so who can I install
it ? And, is there any other way to install vat from sources code
without installing Audio File by compiling with other ports or devices
? Note that my os is FreeBSD 2.2.2. and I have I SoundBlaster sounf
card correctly installed.

you mean a more explicit message than "... but LDN X is disables" ?
If you have suggestions on how to phrase it then let me know, i am a
bit reluctant in putting a manpage in the probe messages... :)
Also note that some BIOSes do not know anything about PnP so the real
solution (and what should go into the msg) is to "boot -c" and assign
proper resources to the card (and the kernel *might* give some
suggestions about this, in a reasonably compact form).
As for the vendor-id, that has been fixed in snd980419.tgz from my web
site (not in the source tree yet...)

this was half correct, it takes care of the routing information between the
multicast routers, but does not take care of the session data. I believe
I have that fixed also (by also routing the multicast tunnel around the
alias code).
I am pulling the above diff file and will replace it when the session
change has been fully tested.

I tested the new change to user PPP that bypasses alias processing
for IGMP packets and for IP to IP tunnel packets that carry a payload
that has a multicast destination.
This change will allow a PPP host enabled with the "-alias" option to
run mrouted. This does not intend to forward the IGMP nor tunneled packets
to another host on the far side if the tun0 interface.
The context "diff" for the changes to /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp is at
ftp://ftp.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/pub/freebsd/misc/ppp_igmp.diff
and is dated May 29 1998. The previous version of this file only
allowed the IGMP routing packets to bypass the alias section.

I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.2 and I've loaded the latest
ALTQ (1.0.1) onto it. I'm configuring an ATM
interface to make it multicast capable.
ATM interface en0 configuration:
ifconfig en0 198.119.22.6 netmask 0xfffffffc
route add -iface 198.119.22.5 -link en0:3.0.0.a
Shadow interface pvc0 configuration:
pvcsif en0 (creates pvc0 shadow interface bound to en0)
ifconfig pvc0 198.119.22.6 netmask 0xfffffffc 198.119.22.5
pvctxctl pvc0 0:10 -b 155M (assigns pvc 10 to pvc0)
When I start mrouted, it finds pvc0 from the kernel and
assigns it as vif#2. When mrouted installs vif#2 (pvc0)
from reading the config file and tries to install it, it
bombs with the following messages:
warning - can't join group 224.0.0.4 on interface 198.119.22.6:
can't assign requested address
setsockopt IP_MULTICAST_IF 198.119.22.6: can't assign requested
address
It looks like mrouted cannot handle having the same address
assigned to 2 interfaces even if the second interface is
a pseudo bound to the real interface.
Is anyone else experiencing similar problems the ALTQ ATM
driver?
Thanks,
George Uhl

I used this code, set the VIDPHYSADDR to 0xe1800000 and VIDPHYSSIZE to
0x800000, and MSRINDEX is set to 5 (??) and experienced NO speed increase
at all when using xengine.
this is my X server output:

Sorry to follow-up my own message.
I was not quite accurate....
I can cat .au files to /dev/audio no problem
With the FreeBSD raplayer3.0 I can listen to already downloaded .ra files
no problem
With both FreeBSD raplayer3.0 and Linux ELF rvplayer5.0 I get a cannot
open audio device when trying to listen to streaming .ram files.
I am running as root, all the nodes in /dev seem to be there and have
reasonable permissions.

a .ram file is not a streaming file at all, it's actually just a text
