Hey, I also had the same problem. The AWE 64 just doesn't even make noise!. While its true that the manual has an example on set it up, it just didn't work. I tried recompiling the kernel many times, even a couple of "make world", both with FreeBSD 4.5 and 4.6.2 release. I gave up as I don't really need the sound to enjoy the system, but I think that there is probably an issue with the AWE64 and FreeBSD. By the way, the card is on a ISA slot and works fine when running win2k. Rafael Scott Corey wrote: > Personally I think I would rather ask a "Question" on FreeBSD-questions > mailing list.
