Why not send us one and we'll have Cameron Grant look at it? He is somewhat constrained by the hardware available to him, and being off in the UK and stuck in a wheelchair to boot doesn't exactly give him the best access. > If we're going to be forced to use newer boards, what about > SoundBlaster Live, Diamond Fusion, and other modern Aureal/Dolby based > PCI sound boards?

It doesn't support them out of the box now, but I can tell you that Cameron is certainly working on at least the Soundblaster Live support since we did send him one and I've heard him complaining bitterly about it on several occasions. :) If somebody wants to send him a Diamond Fusion card, I would be happy to "broker" the deal. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
