I have recently installed FreeBSD 2.1.0 on a pc (Compaq 486) and am having alot of trouble getting a SoundBlaster 16 card working. (my real goal is to get the MBONE multicasting tools sd and vat working, but first I thought I should verify that the sound card works) i) I configured my kernel with the following statements in the config file: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 conflicts drq 1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 device opl0 at isa? port 0x388 conflicts options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IRQ note: I do not have any other devices configured for IRQ5 ii) The kernel reports the following upon boot up: sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa sb0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.11> sbxvi0 at 0x0 drq 5 on isa sbxvo0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.11> sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa <SoundBlaster MPU-401> opl0 at 0x388 on isa opl0: <Yamaha OPL-3 FM> iii) cat /dev/sndstat reports the following: VoxWare Sound Driver:3.0-beta-950506 (Sun Feb 5 14:38:12 EST 1995 freebsd-hacker s@freefall.cdrom.com) Config options: ffffffff Installed drivers: Type 1: OPL-2/OPL-3 FM Type 2: SoundBlaster Type 6: SoundBlaster16 Type 7: SB16 MIDI Card config: SoundBlaster at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 SoundBlaster16 at 0x0 irq 65535 drq 5 SB16 MIDI at 0x330 irq 65535 drq 4294967295 OPL-2/OPL-3 FM at 0x388 irq 65535 drq 4294967295 Audio devices: 0: SoundBlaster 16 4.11 Synth devices: 0: Yamaha OPL-3 Midi devices: 0: SoundBlaster 16 Midi Timers: 0: System Timer Mixers: 0: SoundBlaster iv) cat filename.au >/dev/audio results in no sound and cat hangs without quitting. v) cat filename >/dev/dsp results in no sound and cat hangs without quitting. Is there anyone who could help me with some advice on how to get this working? Thankyou. Tom Lehman (tlehman@becky.acet.org)
