Oh well, it works when I specify the addresses and stuff using /boot/device.hints (-current as of last night) but using the modules doesnt quite work. I loaded snd_pcm and snd_sbc and it only detected the sound part, not the pcm needed to make it actually *do* something :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
