More or less I did what=20 you mentioned here. Some other packages had to be reinstalled as well.=20 However, I can't search for people on the address book at all. Also, ekiga cannot read from the sound device /dev/dsp0.0. It seems that=20 no telephony program works for me (I tried both "ekiga" and "skype").=20 People cannot hear me and I cannot hear them. However, I have sound on my= =20 system, and I can also record voice with audacity. I have no idea what's=20 going wrong. I have a "Creative Sound Blater Live 24! external" sound=20 card. I can use "ekiga" and "skype" under Windows XP on the same computer. I have a Logitech webcamera attached to the computer which works under=20 Windows as a microphone too. However, under FreeBSD I use another=20 microphone which is connected to the "Creative Sound Blater Live 24!=20 external" sound card which is used with the snd_uaudio module. I switched to FreeBSD from Linux on November 2005, because it was the only= =20 Unix-like system which recognised my main hardware on my new Emachine=20 computer, which was a real bargain from PCWorld (but this for the cost of= =20 some hardware incompatibilities, but I should not complain since it was=20 very cheap). Apart from Macromedia Flash plugin and telephony everything= =20 work fine under FreeBSD :) I would try also MacOS, but at the moment the hardware is to expensive for= =20 me.
