I just got FreeBSD 4.0 from Amazon (the 4-disc set). I'm running it on a
P-II with 128 MB RAM, 2GB of drive space devoted to BSD (nowhere near full),
and a Yamaha OPL3-SAx ISA soundcard, among other things (or at least, that's
what the BIOS ISA PnP detection says it is, and the opl3sa driver works fine
with it on Linux).

During the installation, I didn't notice anything about setting up sound
cards...the Multimedia category in the kernel configuration screen was
empty. I looked around on the various FreeBSD CD's (and in
/stand/sysinstall), but couldn't find anything pertaining to soundcards.

My question: How do I set up my sound card on FreeBSD so I can use it for
things like XMMS, etc.?

A nudge in the right direction would be very helpful. :-) Thanks.
