After much pain, I beileive that I finally have my Gravis Ultrasound PnP sound card working in my FreeBSD box. I would like to say thank yuo to all of the helpful people that helped me throught my own ignorance. Most espically Amancio Hasty. Now that I have it working (I thnk). I would like to star using it I have several questions. Ine of my primary reasons fo wanting it was to sund enable Netscape. Having sed this I need to configure the mailcap file for Netscape to ahndle as many diverse types of sound files as I can. Could someone provide me a list of al the sound playing programs that have been proted to FreeBSD, and the file types that they hadle> Does anyone know ehre I can get sox for FreeBSD? Why do I get the folwing error when I run midiplay: Script started on Fri Jan 24 23:28:41 1997 stan@koala.fas.com:/home/stan/sounds $ script$ playmidi *mid$ /dos/ultrasnd/midi/acpiano.pat: No such file or directory Can't load any melodic patches! stan@koala.fas.com:/home/stan/sounds $ Script done on Fri Jan 24 23:28:50 1997 Qhat do I do to fix it?
