I suspect I've been "Delled". The card was a preinstall at the Dell factory, and after a lot of googling last night, I discovered that the version of this card installed by Dell is modified. This link: http://www.opensound.com/readme/README.EMU10K1X.html has a little detail about the oss driver for the Dell modified SB Live! card. I downloaded the driver and tried to install it as described, but I keep getting the following: # ./oss-install Checking for any previously installed sound drivers... There is another sound driver loaded. Unload it and try again. But when I try to kldunload the drivers, I get: # kldunload snd_emu10k1.ko kldunload: can't find file snd_emu10k1.ko: No such file or directory This is turning into a real pain. Anyone know if the Dimension 8300 onboard sound is easier to get working? If I can't return it to Dell, I'll probably wind up putting the card in another machine. Thanks for the response.
