This seems to work -- thanks.
As yet I've not actually put any sound through but the sound HW
connects up as reported by dmesg:
pcm0: <VIA VT8237> port 0xbc00-0xbcff irq 22 at device 17.5 on pci0
pcm0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
pcm0: <Avance Logic ALC658 AC97 Codec>
And pciconf -lv:
pcm0@pci0:17:5: class=0x040100 card=0xa0021458 chip=0x30591106 rev=0x60 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc'
device = 'VT8233/33A/8235/8237 AC97 Enhanced Audio Controller'
class = multimedia
subclass = audio
And i find /dev/dsp* now exist.
Help is much appreciated;
I did eventually find
device sound
in the man pages; but where does
device "snd_via8233"
come from?
