Im not sure what sound card came with my dell (its 3 years old). So i did: #kldload snd_emu10k1 #kldload snd_driver then: #cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0xec40 irq 11 kld snd_es137x(1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) This is my first time trying to get the sound working. I try play an mp3 ans dont hear anything. Perhaps using the snd_driver wont work in my case... Is there a way to get freeBSD to show my sound device so I can load the correct module? Or is there something else im doing wrong? Thanks Eoghan
