I was reading the |HandBook that comes with FBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE and it had sound blaster |16. I inserted the lines like it is writen in the handbook. the SB16 |drivers seem to find the soundcard. and everything seems to work all |right. But I don't know how to test the sound card. Looks like you got your kernel built and installed fine. To exercise your soundcard, run any FreeBSD-ready audio app. For a start, check out the packages in: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/packages-2.2.2/audio Also, most Linux audio apps will work too if you have Linux emulation built into your kernel, and there are other apps out on the net Randall
