In the mss case though those would attach to pnpmss, not mss. :) Most of the integrated sound chips nowadays are PCI devices, too, not ISA-like devices. > Unless you need anything more, I'm going to move on to making the mixer > register mapping actually match the input side of the sound chips (only the > PCM / line out register maps are correct in mss.c). > > Then on to figure out why the midi and FM synthesizer logical devices don't > probe for the CS4236B.

I think there's notes in the handbook about how to generate patche with diff. Probably easiest is to cvsup the CVS repository and check out a separate copy of src/sys and do your work in that branch. You can then use 'cvs diff' to generate a patch. The best list for sound patches is probably multimedia@FreeBSD.org. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org
