This weekend I upgraded my aging P-III machine to a newAMD Athlon 64 system. I am running FreeBSD/i386 5.3-STABLE. This onboard sound on my motherboard (ECS 755-A2) probes and the pcm driver loads, but I do not get sound. I receive the following error:
Jan 9 04:27:06 gw kernel: pcm0: ac97 link rate calibration timed out after 1006794 us I have not been able to locate that error message. This is what cat /dev/sndstat says: FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Installed devices: pcm0: <SiS 7012> at io 0xe000, 0xe100 irq 18 bufsz 16384 kld snd_ich (1p/1r/0v channels duplex default) Any suggestions on what I should do or should I install my old soundcard? -- Jonathan Fosburgh AIX and Storage Administrator UT MD Anderson Cancer Center Houston, TX
