Regarding the message below... When I CVSUPed to 5.3-beta5 [FIVE]... ... all my sound output stopped working! KDE wouldn't make sound Audacity wouldn't output XMMS got an error related to output I performed a port upgrade last night as described in the article below and now all sound seems to work fine. http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2003/08/28/FreeBSD_Basics.html Hope this is useful. __________________________________________________________ Message: 1 Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2004 11:40:38 +0900 From: Pyun YongHyeon Subject: Re: Maestro3 and 5.3-beta5 Since it worked before, it sounds like DMA buffer allocation issue. Can you try attached patch? It doesn't fix your issue but it checks return code correctly and we can know whether DMA buffer allocation was successful or not. If DMA buffer allocation was successful I have no idea. If you see DMA buffer allocation failure you probably can workaround the issue like this: Step 1. Make static kernel with your sound drivers. Step 2. add vm.old_contigmalloc=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf If you needed step2, maestro3 driver needs rewriting for its memory management code.
