The "not configure" means that no driver attached. That could be because the driver for it was present but disabled. But in this case it means OpenBSD doesn't have a driver for this hardware. Given the general lack of interest in armv7 hardware, it is unlikely we'll have a driver for it anytime soon. But if somebody is interested, porting the NetBSD driver would be the way to go. > On Fri, Nov 11, 2022 at 10:41 AM Jazzi Hong <jazzihon...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Just found a page on NetBSD which claims AllWinner A20 is on the > > support list including the Audio, below is the link: > > > > https://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/evbarm/allwinner > > > > According to my knowledge, OpenBSD has history with NetBSD and share > > many to each other, don't know if it's possible to bring that driver > > in. > > > > On Fri, Nov 11, 2022 at 11:30 AM Jazzi Hong <jazzihon...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > > Got it, thanks for the great suggestion. > > > > > > On Fri, Nov 11, 2022 at 11:13 AM Jonathan Gray <j...@jsg.id.au> wrote: > > > > > > > > On Fri, Nov 11, 2022 at 10:55:32AM +0800, Jazzi Hong wrote: > > > > > Thank you Jonathan, no driver in the kernel?
