next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I have a PCI soundcard with a MIDI interface with a joystick attached. How can I configure the kernel to recognize the MIDI port? The soundcard is recognized and sound is working. Searching mailing list archives, I came across a couple of posts that talk about ISA-only support for MIDIs and patches to enable PCI versions[1]. The post talks about 4.8, and I'm too new to FreeBSD to figure out how relevant it is for 5.1. I have devices `pcm' and `joy' in my kernel config file, and I tried adding `midi' and `seq' just in case, but the device doesn't seem to get recognized: Jul 13 23:51:34 fbsd-machine kernel: pcm0: <SigmaTel STAC9721/23 AC97 Codec> Jul 13 23:51:34 fbsd-machine kernel: pci0: <simple comms> at device 10.0 (no driver attached) On on an off chance that the kernel just doesn't know where to look for it, I tried setting hint.joy.0.at="pci0" in /boot/device.hints, but with to effect. There is no joy in /dev (pun intended). Ari.
