The sound chip is Crystal Sound CS4237B. I recompiled my kernel with: device pcm options PNPBIOS This is the only way I can get anything to show up. The PNPBIOS seems like it must be in there. In dmesg output, I get: unknown: can't assign resources unknown: can't assign resources unknown: can't assign resources unknown: can't assign resources pcm0: at port 0x530-0x537,0x388-0x38b,0x220-0x22f irq 5 drq 1,0 on isa0 unknown: can't assign resources unknown: can't assign resources I followed the handbook and made sure to do the following commands: cd /dev ./MAKEDEV snd0 From the console, I can run both cdcontrol and mpg123 with no problems. The sound works great. I can play CDs and when I use mpg123 the mp3 plays just fine and I can use control-c to exit. The problem comes when I run X (my preferred wm is WindowMaker if that makes a difference). I can open up an xterm and still play CDs with cdcontrol. Whenever I try to play an MP3 in xmms, it locks up my whole machine immediately and I have to force a shutdown to get out of it. I can play CDs in xmms just fine. It's only MP3s that kill it. What really has me confused is that I can use mpg123 in X to play an mp3. The mp3 starts up and plays just fine, but the moment I press control-c to exit, it locks up my machine just as xmms does. I'm very confused about what could be causing all this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. **Shane** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
