Mine "works" with just "device pcm" and "device sbc", in the same way that it "works" using the old "at isa?" syntax. However I have a weird problem - an attempt to play any given track will fail about 10% of the time, all I get is static from the speakers. Restarting the play generally works. It sounds to me like maybe something isn't being reset properly before the device is opened. Has anyone seen this behaviour, or is there anything anyone can suggest for tracking this down? I've tried swapping the card, and the symptoms persist. This is under 4.1-STABLE, cvsupped yesterday, and has been happening since 4.0-STABLE as of at least May (when I first installed this box.) pdh@minotaur:~% dmesg | egrep 'sb|pcm' sbc0: at port 0x220-0x22f,0x330-0x331,0x388-0x38b irq 5 drq 1,3 on isa0 sbc0: setting card to irq 5, drq 1, 3 pcm0: on sbc0 pdh@minotaur:~% cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Sep 26 2000 07:43:54 Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0x220 irq 5 drq 1:3 (1p/1r channels duplex) pdh@minotaur:~% Also, I've just noticed that the volume control in xmms has just ceased to have any effect, hmm... -- Phil Homewood pdh@asiaonline.net Senior Technician +61 7 3620 1930 Asia Online (Brisbane) http://www.asiaonline.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
