Hi all, This is a call for help... I'm experiencing audio problems on my laptop: when I try to play audio in KDE, the output is very noisy and harsh, sometimes briefly stuttering like a skipping CD. I've tried the 'cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play 1' test from the VGA console (as described in the FreeBSD handbook) but no sound is emitted in that case. No amount of knobbing and tuning seems to affect the results. My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5101AWLMi (ATI SB450 soundcard) with the very latest BIOS, on which I've installed FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE for i386, plus the binary kernel objects from Ariff Abdullah's site (sndkld_releng6_i386_lowlatency.tar.gz). My dmesg (with uname, etc.) is available at: <http://arem.altervista.org/tmp/snd_hda_dmesg.txt>; Any help or advice is welcome! Thanks for your time, Andrew
