It seems that my notebook (HP nx7400) also doesn't have sound support with same problem conditions. I also installed 4.1-release and tried to upgrade to 4.2-current (snapshot from 5 Aug 2007) but no results. Here is my dmesg: $ dmesg OpenBSD 4.2-beta (GENERIC) #1: Sun Aug 5 19:58:43 EEST 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data0/share/OpenBSD/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC cpu0: Intel(R) Celeron(R) M CPU 430 @ 1.73GHz ("GenuineIntel" 686-class) 1.73 GH z cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,CFLUSH,D S,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,TM,SBF,SSE3,MWAIT,TM2,xTPR real mem = 527855616 (503MB) avail mem = 502767616 (479MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 10/23/06, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xf0000, SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xf3f1c (23 entries) bios0: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq nx7400 (EY587ES#ACB) pcibios0 at bios0: rev 2.1 @ 0xf0000/0x2000 pcibios0: PCI IRQ Routing Table rev 1.0 @ 0xf07c0/192 (10 entries) pcibios0: bad IRQ table checksum pcibios0: PCI IRQ Routing Table rev 1.0 @ 0xff880/192 (10 entries) pcibios0: PCI Exclusive IRQs: 5 10 11 pcibios0: PCI Interrupt Router at 000:31:0 ("Intel 82801FBM LPC" rev 0x00) pcibios0: PCI bus #16 is the last bus bios0: ROM list: 0xc0000/0x10000! acpi at mainbus0 not configured cpu0 at mainbus0 pci0 at mainbus0 bus 0: configuration mode 1 (no bios) pchb0 at pci0 dev 0 function 0 "Intel 82945GM MCH" rev 0x03 vga1 at pci0 dev 2 function 0 "Intel 82945GM Video" rev 0x03: aperture at 0xf440 0000, size 0x10000000 wsdisplay0 at vga1 mux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation) wsdisplay0: screen 1-5 added (80x25, vt100 emulation) "Intel 82945GM Video" rev 0x03 at pci0 dev 2 function 1 not configured azalia0 at pci0 dev 27 function 0 "Intel 82801GB HD Audio" rev 0x01: irq 10 azalia0: host: High Definition Audio rev. 1.0 azalia0: codec: Analog Devices AD1981HD (rev. 2.0), HDA version 1.0 azalia0: codec: AT&T/Lucent/0x3026 (rev. 7.0), HDA version 1.0 azalia0: codec[1]: No support for modem function groups azalia0: codec[1]: No audio function groups audio0 at azalia0 ppb0 at pci0 dev 28 function 0 "Intel 82801GB PCIE" rev 0x01 pci1 at ppb0 bus 8 ppb1 at pci0 dev 28 function 1 "Intel 82801GB PCIE" rev 0x01 pci2 at ppb1 bus 16 "Broadcom BCM4311" rev 0x01 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 not configured uhci0 at pci0 dev 29 function 0 "Intel 82801GB USB" rev 0x01: irq 10 uhci1 at pci0 dev 29 function 1 "Intel 82801GB USB" rev 0x01: irq 11 uhci2 at pci0 dev 29 function 2 "Intel 82801GB USB" rev 0x01: irq 11 uhci3 at pci0 dev 29 function 3 "Intel 82801GB USB" rev 0x01: irq 10 ehci0 at pci0 dev 29 function 7 "Intel 82801GB USB" rev 0x01: irq 10 usb0 at ehci0: USB revision 2.0 uhub0 at usb0: Intel EHCI root hub, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1 ppb2 at pci0 dev 30 function 0 "Intel 82801BAM Hub-to-PCI" rev 0xe1 pci3 at ppb2 bus 2 cbb0 at pci3 dev 6 function 0 "TI PCIXX12 CardBus" rev 0x00: irq 11 bce0 at pci3 dev 14 function 0 "Broadcom BCM4401B1" rev 0x02: irq 10, address 00 :17:08:47:c0:ed bmtphy0 at bce0 phy 1: BCM4401 10/100baseTX PHY, rev. 0 cardslot0 at cbb0 slot 0 flags 0 cardbus0 at cardslot0: bus 3 device 0 cacheline 0x10, lattimer 0x20 pcmcia0 at cardslot0 ichpcib0 at pci0 dev 31 function 0 "Intel 82801GBM LPC" rev 0x01: PM disabled pciide0 at pci0 dev 31 function 1 "Intel 82801GB IDE" rev 0x01: DMA, channel 0 c onfigured to compatibility, channel 1 configured to compatibility atapiscsi0 at pciide0 channel 0 drive 0 scsibus0 at atapiscsi0: 2 targets cd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: <HL-DT-ST, DVDRAM GSA-T10N, PC05> SCSI0 5/cdrom re movable cd0(pciide0:0:0): using PIO mode 4, DMA mode 2 pciide0: channel 1 ignored (disabled) ahci0 at pci0 dev 31 function 2 "Intel 82801GBM AHCI SATA" rev 0x01: irq 10, AHC I 1.1 scsibus1 at ahci0: 32 targets sd0 at scsibus1 targ 0 lun 0: <ATA, TOSHIBA MK6034GS, AH10> SCSI2 0/direct fixed sd0: 57241MB, 7297 cyl, 255 head, 63 sec, 512 bytes/sec, 117231408 sec total usb1 at uhci0: USB revision 1.0 uhub1 at usb1: Intel UHCI root hub, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 usb2 at uhci1: USB revision 1.0 uhub2 at usb2: Intel UHCI root hub, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 usb3 at uhci2: USB revision 1.0 uhub3 at usb3: Intel UHCI root hub, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 usb4 at uhci3: USB revision 1.0 uhub4 at usb4: Intel UHCI root hub, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 isa0 at ichpcib0 isadma0 at isa0 pckbc0 at isa0 port 0x60/5 pckbd0 at pckbc0 (kbd slot) pckbc0: using irq 1 for kbd slot wskbd0 at pckbd0: console keyboard, using wsdisplay0 pmsi0 at pckbc0 (aux slot) pckbc0: using irq 12 for aux slot wsmouse0 at pmsi0 mux 0 pcppi0 at isa0 port 0x61 midi0 at pcppi0: <PC speaker> spkr0 at pcppi0 npx0 at isa0 port 0xf0/16: reported by CPUID; using exception 16 biomask effd netmask effd ttymask ffff pctr: 686-class user-level performance counters enabled mtrr: Pentium Pro MTRR support dkcsum: sd0 matches BIOS drive 0x80 root on sd0a swap on sd0b dump on sd0b $

I tried to make all settings as high as it could be (with mixerctl) but anyway there is no sound/noice when: $ cat ~/BIGFILE > /dev/audio $ though there is no error messages too. There is no /etc/mixerctl.conf on my system: $ ls /etc/mixerctl.conf ls: /etc/mixerctl.conf: No such file or directory $ So... any suggestions to make my AC'97 sound work? 2007/8/29, Peter N. M.
