I'm running FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE, and it seems that my SoundBlaster 16 doesn't work. It's not a Plug-and-Play card (it's one of the old ones), and works fine in NT4. Here's what I have in my kernel config file: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 I have no conflicts, and the device seems to be recognized at startup: sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa snd0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.11> sbxvi0 at drq 5 on isa snd0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.11> sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa snd0: <SoundBlaster MPU-401> When I try to play various audio files using splay, I get this error: Sound: DMA (output) timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? Other programs, like amp, simply sit without giving any error messages at all. Catting a file to /dev/dsp produces static, just as it should. I installed the port 'rsynth', a speech synthesizer, to see if I could get some sound; strangely, only the first part of a string is played: % say ABCDEFG results in the sound 'A... B... C... D<click>". Any suggestions? --Sam Stephenson sam@conio.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
