I tried, it didn't work.
It rightly recognised my sound card, but when giving the command soundon I
got the following messages:
OSS: Failed to register handler for IRQ5
Vortex: Can't allocate IRQ5
Please use BIOS setup to allocate a private IRQ for Vortex.

Using the BIOS looks strange to me, as it works fine under W'2000.
What is happening here? I'm a newbee and try to get a small kernel with my
hardware working, before looking to the other parts of FreeBSD.

Best regards

Simon Siemonsma
