On a system running:
FreeBSD 10.0-CURRENT #0: Sun Mar 11 08:20:02 EDT 2012 amd64
a message flashes by during boot about "Missing required module
'sound'."
loader.conf has:
snd_hda_load="YES"
Looking at "man snd+hda" I see this:
--------
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following
lines in your kernel configuration file:
device sound
device snd_hda
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time,
place the following line in loader.conf(5):
snd_hda_load="YES"
---------
The formatting here makes these seem (for lack of a better
term) mutually exclusive, and so the kernel config does not have
"device sound".
Have I misunderstood?
Is the documentation flawed?
(In spite of the message, sound works fine. I just want to get
rid of the error message, and/or rectify the docuemntation.)
Respectfully,
Robert Huff
