Hi, I am unable to get the sound going on my laptop and I badly need your HELP! 1) Recompiled the Kernel adding «dev pcm» (Via AC'97). 2) Now, these /dev(s) are shown: audio0.0, audio0.1, dsp0.0, dsp.0.1,dspW0.0, dspW0.1, stderr, stdin, stdout etc... 3) I have tried to output sound to all of them (KDE*) WITHOUT success (I do not hear a thing). 4) This is what I have found out: 4.a # grep pcm /var/run/dmesg.boot pcm0: <VIA VT82C686A> port 0x1830-0x1833,0x1834-0x1837,0x1000-0x10ff irq 9 at device 7.5 on pci0 pcm0: ac97 codec invalid or not present (id == ffffffff) robur# 4.b # pciconf -lv [EMAIL PROTECTED]:7:5: class=0x040100 card=0xb1940e11 chip=0x30581106 rev=0x20 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT82C686/A/B AC'97 Audio Codec' class = multimedia subclass = audio 4.c # cat /dev/sndstat FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: <VIA VT82C686A> at io 0x1000 irq 9 (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) 5) If I try to load the codec: # kldload snd_via82c686.ko kldload: can't load snd_via82c686.ko: File exists I am affraid I am lost. Can anyone give me an insight please? Thank You, HDV *Before adding «device pcm» to the Kernel KDE always showed a message saying there was no sound device or something similar, this error message does not appear now but either I am unable to run the Mixer (it hangs for a while and does not start) either it starts but shows no volume control.
