That did not work this time (of which I now know WHY it didn't work) so after reading the man pages, the handbook on the freebsd.org website, I still can't get it to work. I have done the following things: Recompiled the kernel with device sound. using kldload to load different sound drivers (didn't work) added snd_driver_load="YES" to loader.conf - with this i had a bit of success because once i started KDE i heard sound, but after that nothing would play. I've tried loading individual drivers into the loader.conf file, but with no success, of course I did skip some and I haven't yet tried putting anything into the hints file. But I'm hoping perhaps someone has a bit of advice before I break something :) Analog Devices ADI 198x Integrated Audio That's the sound card I have, and of course on the hardware lists I didn't see that, but in previous versions of FreeBSD I was able to get sound to work, so my logic says that I should still be able to. Anyways thanks in advance.
