I just installed 5.1, but my sound isnt working, im not sure if I have to install the alsa sound drivers or not. the integrated sound I have with my shuttle mv42n board is Via AC97 sound, and when I go into kde i get the error message Alsa drivers are a Linux-only thing. You should be able to get sound working by doing: kldload snd Then, when you figure out which exact sound driver to use (e.g. snd_via8233), you can add it to /boot/loader.conf. For example: snd_via8233_load="YES" Then you'll have sound every time you boot.
