Hello all,

Okay finally i got my sb awe 64 working.
Mainly thanks to the last mail i got the x11amp didnt work to well.
I tryed xmpeg3 but also that one wasnt to right.
finally i tryed mpg123 and that started to play actually! happiness.
Oh yes, how?
This is how it worked for me:

1) i Added these lines to the kernel conf file:

controller	snd0
device sb0      at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1
device sbxvi0   at isa? drq 5
device sbmidi0  at isa? port 0x330
device awe0     at isa? port 0x620
device opl0     at isa? port 0x388

2) i added to the /boot/loader.rc these lines:

load /kernel
load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.config

3) i added to the /boot/kernel.conf these lines to the beginning of the
file:

pnp 1 0 os port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5
pnp 1 0 enable
pnp 1 1 os port0 0x208
pnp 1 1 enable
pnp 1 2 os port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20
pnp 1 2 enable

4) in /dev i did: 'sh MAKEDEV snd0'

5) /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL
   cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
   make depend
   make
   make install

MYKERNEL is the name of the kernel conf file in my case.
These are the steps wich made it actually work!
I am meaning to put this on the web somewhere for all ppl who have an sb
awe 64 and want to get it to work!
Maybe this should be a part of the freebsd homepage somewhere?
Anyway, all who helped me thanks!!! i think it works now fine, i hope
hehehehehe. if not i'll be asking again help.

Oh yes, one last question, anybody knows a mp3 player for xwindows wich
does work (i run gnome btw).
Sincerely,

Reinoud Koornstra.
