Cc: dan@math.berkeley.edu Sender: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I am attempting to configure an "Ensoniq AudioPCI" to run under FreeBSD 3.0-xxx-BETA. As usual, actual technical information about the card is virtually nonexistant. The vendor said it was a "sound blaster 16 PCI" and that name was the closest he could come to a sound card that had worked for me in the past. Unfortunately, this seems to be very different. Nothing I try seems to work. The only kernel driver I can get to concede the existence of the card is "awe0" and (I believe) this is only for controlling "advanced wave effects" when using the real sound device. Can someone identify this species of sound card and suggest a driver? Also, can someone suggest a sound card that does work with FreeBSD? I am looking for a stable procuct line. Creative seems to plow its product line under every six months and I am getting sick and tired of discovering that the old drivers just don't work anymore.
