#sound-card-support=20

First part is fine, assuming man pages will be up to date etc. Not sure
about
support for MIDI cards/MPU-401. Is this covered by uart? Don't know whateve=
r=20
was "Microsoft=C2=AE Sound System specification".

#es1370-silent-pcm=20

That's one thing, but most often silent device is caused by need for proper=
=20
device.hints, as usual with e.g. snd_hda. This could use mention of it.

#java=20

is fine assuming linked content is up to date. Looks it is, but I'm not
using Java.

#midi-sound-files=20

I'm not usually creating wavs from midi (honestly, probably nobody is doing=
=20
that for music listening any more, maybe it should be swapped to "how to ri=
p
CD to mp3 or ogg"=20
with links to port tools, but maybe this is already old fashioned ;) ) but =
I
have audio/timidity++=20
installed, and just checked, it still works as described. On the side note,
audio/timidity is broken,=20
sound is severely corrupted, this was not the case some time ago.

#x-3d-acceleration=20

This should/could be updated a bit, especially that there is no mention of
intel and newer cards,=20
and those old ones (matrox etc.) are going to be dropped with newer xorg
(kib@?)
