According to the documentation, it has a "ES1888" soundcard. I have tried the VOXWARE driver, Luigi's pcm driver, and the ESS-specific pcm driver[0]. None of them have worked. Does anyone have this card working (c'mon, there's gotta be more than one of these notebooks out there)? I am running a straight (non-PAO) 3.4-STABLE on the notebook. I can get each of the driver sets to find the card (the only modification is that it is at 0x230 rather than 0x220[1]), but none can work it. Here is the dmesg and an attempt at use for each, VOXWARE: sb0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa Hmm... Could this be an ESS688 based card (rev 11) snd0: sbxvi0 not found sbmidi0 not found at 0x330 opl0 at 0x388 on isa snd0: % cat sound.au > /dev/audio SoundBlaster: DSP Command(0xd3) timeout. IRQ conflict ? Luigi's: pcm0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa ESS1868 (rev 11) % cat sound.au > /dev/audio timeout flushing dbuf_out, chan 1 cnt 0x7414 flags 0x00000441 ESS-specific: pcm0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa ESS Chip (rev 11, 5959, native mode) % cat sound.au > /dev/audio timeout flushing dbuf_out, chan 1 cnt 0x7414 flags 0x00000441 Hmmm... Last two look similar, no? Anyway, the card did work on the Win98 that came on the HDD before I nuked it, and the card was at IRQ 5 in Windows. Any advice? Thanks. [0] Apparently these are some PAO mods to the sys/isa/snd for ESS that can stand alone. http://home.jp.freebsd.org/~sanpei/ [1] I found this trick in the mail archives. Some fella was trying to get one of these cards working almost exactly a year ago. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=1518810+1521246+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990321.freebsd-questions -- Crist J.
