Hi,

I have problem with my laptop;it freezes/crashes on BOOT when I compile =
"device pcm" into the kernel.

I tried loading snd_pcm, but nothign happens. kldstat shows snd_pcm, but =
no entries in /dev

also, there aren;t any messages in /var/logs/messages when i kldload the =
sound module.

i tried inserting snd_neomagic_load=3D"YES" into loader.conf but that =
only nets the same result as if i compiled "device pcm" in the kernel.

yes, sound does exist. it is a neomagic sound chip. 256AV. sound =
detection is where it freezes at in the broken kernel.

I read the sound documetation, (no help), posted the problem on a few =
forums (no help).

Maybe someone here is better?=20

Thanks.
