The card is listed in the pcm/sbc driver but nothing detects when I compile them in my kernel. Is there a magic chicken or goat I can download to make it work? I'm just trying to make it work for the fun of it since it isnt my laptop and probably wont keep freebsd on it unless I find a way to make it more useful than windows, but it would be nice if the sound could be made to work just for the sake of improving the method (or docs for how) freebsd would do it.
