Hi.

I recently cvsup'd -CURRENT both so that I could run StarOffice 5.1 (it's an 
SMP box), and to check it out (as it will soon be a Release, and I see a lot 
of good stuff going on there, like the SMP locking, NFS fixes etc.).

I've got a Micron W6-Li Lightning board with integrated Creative Vibra16X and 
Adaptec 7880, and I run a WinTV card as well. I also have the ISA Waveblaster 
daughter card that makes the sound setup effectively an AWE32.


After upgrading, I discovered that I couldn't get the sound chip on the 
motherboard to get probed correctly.

Given the Plug'n'Pray changes in -current, I pretty much expected to lose 
AWE32 support (as I can no longer use the 'pnp' commands in 'userconfig' to 
probe the "magic" ports for the AWE32).

However, I wasn't expecting to lose the ability to use VoxWare altogether.

Without PNPBIOS, I got these messages (config file was the same one as used 
under -STABLE, just converted by the simple expedient of fixing the complaints 
from 'config', mostly changing 'controller' to 'device' etc.):

sb_reset_dsp failed
sb_reset_dsp failed

unknown2: <Game> at port 0x201 on isa0

I tried adding PNPBIOS to the kernel options, with little improvement:

Switching 'PNP OS = YES' in the BIOS setup (it's a Phoenix BIOS) didn't seem to 
make any difference to anything.

Worse, with PNPBIOS enabled, the WinTV card would not work either:

bktr0: <BrookTree 878> irq 17 at device 17.0 on pci0
bktr0: could not map memory
device_probe_and_attach: bktr0 attach returned 6
pci0: unknown card (vendor=0x109e, dev=0x0878) at 17.1 irq 17


Subsequent attempts to run 'fxtv' would give '/dev/bktr0 not configured' 
messages.


In fact, in -current, there's a few things that look odd. I always get this 
complaint from the BrookTree driver (which I've never seen on 3.x):

pci0: unknown card (vendor=0x109e, dev=0x0878) at 17.1 irq 17

I get this even if PNPBIOS isn't an option, and the card actually works...

and I always see this too

devclass_alloc_unit: npx0 already exists, using next available unit number


Using the 'pcm0' and 'sbc0' driver (without any 'at isa?' etc. and without 
PNPBIOS so the WinTV card is usable) seems to work fine, but I'm a little 
confused as to why the VoxWare stuff can't work anymore.

Last but not least, 'xmcd' doesn't work for me under -CURRENT (integrated 
AIC-7880 and Plextor PX-12TSi CD-ROM), it never recognises that a CD is 
inserted, and an attempt to eject the CD from 'xmcd' gives a 'Inappropriate 
IOCTL for device' message (sorry, I didn't make a note of the tag on the front).

I was running an pre-built port, which gave a different error. I 'make 
reinstall' the port, and it now gives the IOCTL error message, but only 
under -CURRENT.


I was running 3.3-STABLE from some time ago (on another drive). I just 
upgraded that to 3.4-STABLE (as of last night), and everything works fine 
booted from that, VoxWare (with AWE32), WinTV, 'xmcd', etc.

However, I still can't run StarOffice 5.1 without booting a UP kernel, which 
is kind of sub-optimal. :-/


Is this breakage of the built-in Vibra with VoxWare expected?  Surprised the 
heck out of me...


Is there anything I can do to help track this down, or does anyone have
any additional suggestions? Complete 'dmesg' output available on request
:=)



Regards,


Andy Sparrow
