Below are some instructions I have to follow to hopefully get some sound working on my FReeBSD. I have learned how to build a kernel - think I can do that. But I have had some nasty experiences w/tar in the past. Can anyone help me? I have the feeling there's more to it than just the cmds cited below - I think I'll have to do just a little more to get it "together" than what's cited below in that general case/scenerio. The actual site is: http://www.inode.org/sw/auvia/ which has the right "medicine" for my Abit VA6 motherboard sound chip - if I can figure out EXACTLY what the correct cmds are for ME. #2 I really don't know what "they" want me to do here. I have the file auvia.tar.gz on a floppy that's mounted and I can cd over to /usr/src/sys. But what I really don't know what I'm supposed to do - what's going on!? Same w/ #3 what is this for? what is going on here?? ------------------------------------------------------- WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO: This section assumes you know how to build a BSD kernel. 1. Download the driver source code (link). 2. Extract it in the base of your kernel source tree: cd /usr/src/sys tar zxvf auvia.tar.gz 3. Patch the following files: cd conf patch < files.diff 4. If you are using 4.0-STABLE instead of 4.0-RELEASE, then patch auvia.c with this (link). 5. In your kernel configuration file, place the line device pcm0 6. Compile the new kernel. 7. Enjoy!
