I was attempting to upgrade a Gateway GT5220 PC. The machine was running FreeBSD-7.2 successfully. The sound system was functioning correctly and gMplayer and Mplayer worked fine. The machine was using a nVidia GeForce 6150 LE on-board card. I installed a nVidia GeForce GT 220 card. The old on-board card did not support DVI.
Now, the video is fine; however, there is no audio. Mplayer and gMplayer both freeze when attempting to play or view anything. I have no idea how to debug this. Since I did not touch the audio, I cannot figure it out. I did have a script that ran upon boot-up: /sbin/sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4 /sbin/sysctl dev.pcm.0.play.vchans=4 /sbin/sysctl dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans=4 /sbin/sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans=16 mixer vol 100:100 pcm 100:100 speaker 100:100 line 100:100 mic 0:0 cd 100:100 =rec mic Previously, it ran without incident. Now, it produces this output: sysctl: unknown oid 'hw.snd.pcm0.vchans' dev.pcm.0.play.vchans: 4 -> 4 sysctl: dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans: Operation not supported by device hw.snd.maxautovchans: 16 -> 16 mixer: unknown device: vol usage: mixer [-f device] [-s | -S] [dev [+|-][voll[:[+|-]volr]] ... mixer [-f device] [-s | -S] recsrc ... mixer [-f device] [-s | -S] {^|+|-|=}rec rdev ...

I really would like the audio to work on this machine again. -- Carmel carmel...@hotmail.com |::::======= |::::======= |=========== |=========== | So... did you ever wonder, do garbage men take showers before they go to work? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
