Hi,

I switched my desktop from Linux to OpenBSD. My SB audigy card doesn't seem to 
be supported very well. I can move the sliders in the mixers, but the volume 
stays the same. But after reading Bugs section in the emu man page, I guess 
that is what I see there. Therefore I took the onboard card, and sound 
started to work, but only stereo. Is 5.1 sound working well with the cmpci 
based cards? I thought about buying one of those cheap cards.

The second thing is, I have a monitor, with a resolution 1920x1200. 
With the nvidia geforce based card I had in the agp slot, and nv driver in 
xorg, the best resolution that I got was 1280x1024. I removed that card, and 
took the onboard graphics card, its an intel 82865G. I also installed the 
915resolution port, and did define a resolution for 1920x1200, but that did 
not helped, xorgconfig did not catched this as a valid resolution that the 
card supports. I added the resolution manually to the xorg.conf file, but 
xorg refused to use it. The best resolution it was using now is: 1600x1200, 
better than with the nvidia card, but not yet the native resolution of the 
monitor.
I wonder whether the intel or nv driver are able to provide me the native 
resolution of the monitor?
Otherwise, anybody can recommend me a card that will be able to run my monitor 
in the high resolution?


cheers
Sebastian
