Subject:   two soundcards - one works
Message-ID:  <opr2m67z0komdbx5@localhost>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I'm fairly new to FreeBSD, and I'm trying to set it up to replace windows, 
only bits left is sound, video and tv-out.

I've got two soundcards, one onboard AC'97 (on a asus A7V8X w/KT400) and a 
pci soundblaster 128 card. I've been using the pci card sending sound to 
the living room, (music & movies) and the onboard for everything else.

At first sound didnt work at all, but reading the handbook got one card 
working, and I've looked through the mailing list archives and google - 
couldnt fint anything on how to get the other working. (I havent tried the 
options PNPBIOS yet, as I want to keep the generic kernel till I'm done 
setting evrything up, and besides dmesg show the pci device so its a 
driver issue isnt it?)

Below you can find various outputs form dmesg, kldstat and /dev. If anyone 
needs more details to help please ask.

thanks for you time,
Bjorn
