Hi. I have been following the thread(s) about getting the SoundBlaster Vibra 16 sound-cards working in -current, and it appears that if you have a PnP card, it seems to be working. I do not have a PnP version of this card, and the last time I was able to get the sound card recognised was October 2nd. A verbose boot of that kernel reveals sb_probe: no addr, trying (0x220, 0x240) pcm: <SoundBlaster 16 4.13) at irq 10 drq 3 flags 0x17 on isa0 sb_probe: no addr, trying (0x220, 0x240) pcm: setmap 4c0000, ff00; 0xc80b500 -> 4c000 pcm: setmap 4d0000, ff00; 0xc80c500 -> 4d000 and /dev/sndstat reveals FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Oct 2 1999 14:30:27 Installed devices: pcm0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.13> at io 0x220 irq 10 drq 3:7 (1/1 channels duplex) With subsequent kernels, including a -current kernel from 20 Dec, the sound card is not detected. The definitions I'm using in my kernel currently (no pun intended :) are #sound card device pcm0 device sbc0 at isa? port ? irq 10 drq 3 flags 0x17 as compared to what I had device pcm0 at isa? port ? irq 10 drq 3 flags 0x17 The card is probed if the machine is booted with a kernel of Oct 2, and not probed if the machine is botted with a kernel of Dec 20. The only other thing I can think of is that the old kernel had support for PnP, whereas the new ones doesn't. This shouldn't matter though if I'm supplying the parameters directly to the card.
