Hi,
I try to get a Crystal 4237B sound card working on an old Dell laptop
(Latitude CP M233XT) under FreeBSD 5.0. I understand that the pcm driver
should be all I need. However, I've tried with pcm built into the kernel
or as a module without any success.
Fiddling with device.hints (for pcm built into the kernel) or kenv (for
the pcm module) did not make a difference. This card is connected to the
ISA bus at, I believe, io=0x530, irq=5, drq=1. Pnpinfo does not show any
plug-n-pray devices but I am not sure whether this is a PNP card or not.
- Do the hints in the kernel environment matter when a module loads?
Does it make sense to set the appropriate hints using kenv?
- What are the recommended steps to further debug this problem?
- Is cvsup'ing /usr/src/sys worth a try (the kernel was built from the
stock 5.0 Release source)?
- Where is the pnpbios kernel configuration option gone in 5.0?
Note:
- This laptop has no BIOS option to turn the PNP Bios off.
- Turning off ACPI using 'hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"' did not make a
difference.
Any help is greatly appreciated, Oliver
