What I did is, load pcm module in loader.conf, and then load the maestro2 modules in rc.local. edit the file, and add in this line for NEWPCM driver. --- /boot/loader.conf --- snd_pcm_load="YES" --- end --- create this file if not there, and add in the following lines, only the snd_maestro3 is a must, the rest optional. --- /etc/rc.local --- # -- load maestro3 driver # somehow, the order seems to be very important. And pcm must be # in memory first. So that leaves loading snd_pcm in /boot/loader.conf # and loading this now. /sbin/kldload snd_maestro3 # -- adjust the volume # The default of 75:75 is pretty loud /usr/sbin/mixer vol 45:45 /usr/sbin/mixer speaker 45:45 --- end --- I assume you already have devices in /dev/ , if not just do a "cd /dev && sh MAKEDEV all" Regards, /calvin lines with :> are quotes from Erik Sabowski's email :> I am trying to get audio to work on my dell inspiron 8000. i updated the :> sources today. the audio is an ESS maestro 3i. i tried adding 'device pcm' :> to the kernel, that didn;t work. then i tried adding 'device pcm0 at isa? :> port? irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15' (as shown in the man audio page) and that :> didn;t work. when booting, i get the following message concerning the :> card: :> :> pcib2: at device 30.0 on pci0 :> pci2: on pcib2 :> pci2: (vendor=0x125d, dev=0x1998) at 3.0 irq 5 :> :> :> thanks for any help :> :> #airyk :> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
