Please let me know if it is inappropriate to direct this sort of inquiry to this address. I am a freeBSD newbie. I am attempting to get my Sound Blaster 16 (CT2770) to work with FreeBSD. All my attempts to install it using the information in the handbook have failed. When I use the 'sbxvi0' device it returns 'sbxvi0 not found' during boot up so finally then I tried this line: device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 5 vector sbintr using the 'sb0' device seems to work. It detects 'Sound Blaster 16' during the boot sequence, and continues with drive mounting, etc. however, when I try to execute an application that uses the sound card ('MPG123') it returns the following error: DMA timed out. IRQ/DRQ conflict? My sound blaster 16 (model CT2770) is non-plug&play, and it is factory preset at IRQ 5, High DMA 5, Low DMA 1. It is not possible to reconfigure these settings with jumpers. However, nothing appears to be in conflict in my FreeBSD kernel. Thanks for any assistance. I do work in customer service, so I know the frustration of misdirected questions. Please let me know if I should direct my inquiry elsewhere. Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
