I was running 3.2-RELEASE at the time i purhased this card (Yes, i know, ignorant for me not to check on things like compatibility :-P ). Searching through the mailing lists I read several posts about this card. One of which suggested that all -current's supported the 1371. So...I CVSup'd to 4.0-CURRENT, somehow thinking that maybe configuration for this device would be in LINT? Not being there, I went back to the mailing list, searching and finding a patch (ftp://ftp.thebarn.com/outgoing/es1371.patch). That's the patch that I used on a my 3.2R system and it seemed to work fine after that. > So, I downloaded the patch, into /usr/src/sys/pci/ then performing a "patch es1370.c es1371.patch", then recompiled my kernel with "pcm0" and "pnp0" as well as (obviously) "pci0". > I then booted the new kernel, recieving the same message i had... > pci0: unknown card DST1371 (vendor=0x1274, dev=0x1371) ^^^^^^^ Are you sure that it's an ES1371? > Now, I am not familliar with the process of patching, perhaps i did not apply the patch correctly?? There is no documentation to be found on this patch, just suggestions from those on the FreeBSD mailing list archives. > > If anyone could help me out here I would be forever greatful, again I am running FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT, and as well, the line i placed in my kernel config file was I never tried -current with that sound card, but as I mentioned above, on a 3.2R system with that patch it worked. -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu CSU Sacramento - Office Of Water Programs To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
