This is an ESS Maestro 3i chipset. This chip set is supported by the newpcm driver and is reported to have been successfully configured by at least one person. I have built a kernel with "device pcm". The system is 4.-Stable (says 4.3RC now on boot), and doing "strings" on the kernel shows pcm0 . I get no mention of pcm0 in boot messages. I did "boot -c" and looked at the configed devices, and it's there. I changed the interrupt to 9 (not used). I recompiled the kernel with option PNPBIOS. Still, pcm0 is not probled on boot. What utterly stupid thing am I doing wrong. (By the way, if anyone else has one of these beasties, I have the video and pccard stuff working). -Jim Durham To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
