Hi all, I asked this question on freebsd-multimedia at first, but I think that was the wrong list to ask. So I'm asking it here again, if you don't mind. As a side note: I´m not subscribed to the list, so you might want to CC me. Thanks. I just bought a Sweex 5.1 soundcard since my onboard-sound was a horrible disaster (5.1 channels, but only two available, and the volume could not be set except for on and off). The new card was cheap, so that can cause the problem I have now :) The card has an C-Media chip on it (C3DX, CMI8738) but is not detected by snd_cmi. Apparently, from what I read round and about, the CMI8738 should work like a charm on FreeBSD with snd_cmi loaded (which is partly why I bought it in the first place... apart from the money). Does anyone has any idea as to what to do to trace the problem? All I know is pciconf, which doesn't do me any good... It doesn't even show the darn thing. My guess is that I should set the IRQ and I/O settings right, but how do I get the right values for that? I tried installing the card on an obsolete Windows-installation, but got no luck there either (which has to do with the fact that the installation isn't aware of sound anymore due to something NVidia did. Or whatever). I know the card should more or less work though (new hardware found on Windows), but I still do not know which IRQ / I/O to use. And how do I define that? Is that hint.snd or hint.pcm these days? For the record: here are some outputs which might be of help: $ pciconf -l -v hostb0@pci0:0:0: class=0x060000 card=0x31891849 chip=0x31891106 rev=0x80 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT8377 Apollo KT400/A/600 CPU to PCI Bridge' class = bridge subclass = HOST-PCI pcib1@pci0:1:0: class=0x060400 card=0x00000080 chip=0xb1981106 rev=0x00 hdr=0x01 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'ProSavageDDR P4X600 CPU to AGP Bridge' class = bridge subclass = PCI-PCI uhci0@pci0:16:0: class=0x0c0300 card=0x30381849 chip=0x30381106 rev=0x80 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller (All VIA Chipsets)' class = serial bus subclass = USB uhci1@pci0:16:1: class=0x0c0300 card=0x30381849 chip=0x30381106 rev=0x80 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller (All VIA Chipsets)' class = serial bus subclass = USB uhci2@pci0:16:2: class=0x0c0300 card=0x30381849 chip=0x30381106 rev=0x80 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller (All VIA Chipsets)' class = serial bus subclass = USB ehci0@pci0:16:3: class=0x0c0320 card=0x31041849 chip=0x31041106 rev=0x82 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT6202 USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller' class = serial bus subclass = USB isab0@pci0:17:0: class=0x060100 card=0x31771849 chip=0x31771106 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT8235 PCI to ISA Bridge' class = bridge subclass = PCI-ISA atapci0@pci0:17:1: class=0x01018a card=0x05711849 chip=0x05711106 rev=0x06 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT82xxxx EIDE Controller (All VIA Chipsets)' class = mass storage subclass = ATA pcm0@pci0:17:5: class=0x040100 card=0x97611849 chip=0x30591106 rev=0x50 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT8233/33A/8235/8237 AC97 Enhanced Audio Controller' class = multimedia subclass = audio vr0@pci0:18:0: class=0x020000 card=0x30651849 chip=0x30651106 rev=0x74 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT6102 Rhine II PCI Fast Ethernet Controller' class = network subclass = ethernet nvidia0@pci1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x018510de rev=0xc1 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'NVIDIA Corporation' device = 'NV18.6?
