To better support games, I bought a Diamond MX300 and surround sound speakers. The result is amazingly good for Windoze games, but it isn't even detected under FreeBSD. The manual claims there is hardware SoundBlaster Pro support, and under Windoze the usual ports and IRQ are used. Does anybody know how to activate this mode under FreeBSD? I'm not after fancy surround sound with FreeBSD, just a bit of background music from CDs or MP3s. Stephen.
