Very Computer

Hi all,

I have done some digging on this since posting my last query.
I'm on bsd 3.4 stable. I 1st followed LINT advice, but didnt help.
I scanned this forum for similar posted queries, but those among the
replies didnt help either :(
I then went below and changed a few things, unfortunately didnt help.

http://freebsd.lanfear.com/scdb.html (great site for anyone out there
who doesnt know it yet :)

These are my findings:
cat /home/glen/email.au > /dev/audio
timeout flushing dbuf_out, chan 1 cnt 0x1c2b flags 0x00000441

---> kernel controller pnp0
     device pcm0 at isa? port? tty irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15

I realy dont want to be deaf guys, please help.
I cannot give winblows irq's etc. I have another box for that...A games
machine like windblows needs to shut-up and sit waiting until its
master calls anyway. <grin>

I get exactly that too, but if I run KDE and turn the sounds on it works fine!
I've still no idea what's the matter with /dev/audio.

device pcm0 at isa? port 0x220 tty irq 5 drq 1 drq 3 flags 0x0

Are you sure those are the right irq and DMA's for your sound card?  Boot
into Windows, go to Start - Settings - Control Panel, and choose the System
icon.  Go to the Device Manager tab, then expand the "Sound, Video and game
controllers" line.  Choose "ES1868 Plug and Play Audio Drive" and then
select Properties.  Select the Resources tab, and then go down the list of
Resource Types and Settings.  Look for Interrupt Request and Direct Memory
Access - there should be one Interrupt Request line and two Direct Memory
Access lines.  Write these numbers down and then boot back into FreeBSD.
Put the Interrupt Request number after "irq" on the pcm0 line.  Put the
first Direct Memory Access number after "drq", and put the second Direct
Memory Address number as the last number of "flags".

For example, my ESS1869 card is on irq 5, with DMA's of 1 and 0.  My pcm0
line in my kernel config file looks like this:

device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x10

After you rebuild your kernel, go to /dev and do a "./MAKEDEV pcm0".  This
should be all you need to do.  After doing all the above, my sound worked
flawlessly.

Pardon?  My windows are on the second floor, and I don't propose to put
my boots anywhere near them, thank you.
