Okay, I just had a chance to throw this in for a compile.  I have to say 
it is looking much better.  There is a hang though... dunno if it has to 
do with the dma stuff.

PNP Probe in dmesg shows:

The mss_attach above looks suspicious.  FreeBSD 2.2.2 also hangs on bootup
just when it is supposed to start all those daemons.  It stops right after
completing the hard drive probe.  I can hear the hard drive rattle, but
unlike before, it does not show any more messages on the screen.  And then
all of a sudden hangs.

Luigi, is there a way to choose between MSS or SB emulation on these Opti 
chipsets?  I was looking at the Opti 925 spec sheet and there is even 
mention about SB 4.4 mode operation on the chip (Is that SB 16 
emulation?) and OPL4...

It would be nice if MSS (16 bit) was chosen as the default for these
compatibles or have an option to set it because SB Pro is only 8 bit sound.
