Quoting Chuck Robey <chuckr@chuckr.org> (from Sun, 25 Nov 2007 14:59:01 -0500): > Where do the developers of the HDA code hang out, on this list? Is the > snd_hda the current hda driver, and if so, where's the new code going > to be? The current HDA driver is in -current. RELENG_7 is on par (AFAIK). RELENG_6 is "close", but you are better of with RELENG_7 or HEAD. Yes this is the right list, and the only developer working on the HDA front and our sound infrastructure I'm aware of is Ariff (sorry to the 2 others which work on the envy and creative drivers, but for this discussion you don't count ;-) ). He seems to be short of time ATM. You could try to catch him on #freebsd-azalia on freenode. I'm not aware of a major rewrite in the HDA part. Ariff seems to be working on something else: http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/ So feel free to dig into the sound code (we wouldn't mind to get some patches which document the sound system a little bit more ;-) ). I think there are also some tunables (loader.conf) you could try to get some "routing/quirks" tested for your soundcard. HAve a look at the recent HDA mails here on multimedia@.
