Many thanks to Ben Smithurst and Mark Ovens regarding my lack of sound. Both of these FreeBSD gentlemen responded to my questions to get the aforementioned card to work. The short of it is that I was able to config the kernel with support and could see with dmesg and sndstat that things should work. They did not. After a little fiddling and following a suggestion to #cd /dev #sh MAKEDEV snd0 I tested the sound and it works. Thanks guys. I did #MAKEDEV sndo and that did not do it! Go figure, I had to do #sh MAKEDEV snd0 Also I gotta say, FreeBSD kicks ass in a big way. It is amazing to be able to do so much to a system and NOT requite a reboot! I am well on my way to leave M$ way behind me.... YIPPEEEEEE Funny thing is that I cannot yet get music to play from the cd through the sound card. Oh well, one hurdle at a time. And yes, I do have the sound cable connected. ;-) -- Bob Collins Driving my '95 E36/5 Active >> Sport on the www.InternetCoast.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
