Re: PCI128 and RELENG_4
Hm, I have: pcm0: port 0xd000-0xd03f irq 9 at device 10.0 on pci0 FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Dec 26 2000 20:17:05 Installed devices: pcm0: at io 0xd000 irq 9 (1p/1r channels duplex) I just tried recording and I can't get anything out of line0 or mic. Also, the sox port is broken... rec doesn't do anything. I also tried record from an OSS dist. I'm assuming: > % mixer > Mixer mic is currently set to 0:0 You are adjusting that if you're using the mic input. I'm also curious to know if you get a hiss from the speakers all the time that goes away if you set the synth volume to 0. That's what happens with my SB PCI128. --Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
Re: SIGSEGV can be blocked!?

I discovered this because I wanted to > provoke a core dump by a write to (int *)0, but the process got hung, The instruction that caused the SEGV is going to restart after any handler runs because the handler may have mapped the page that caused the fault. On other operating systems you can block SEGV for purposes of asynchronous signals (ie `kill -SEGV') but not for synchronous signals. To quote from the Solaris sigprocmask manpage: Signals that are generated synchronously should not be masked. If such a signal is blocked and delivered, the receiving process is killed. and indeed a test program shows that you still get SEGV in that case. You can still shoot yourself in the foot with a SEGV handler that doesn't eliminate the fault. --Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
Re: MFC? src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC and sound support

So a user can *install* and not have to worry about setting up devices. You don't need a soundcard to do an install. Once you've done the installation you can build a kernel which supports your soundcard. If it's causing problems on installs maybe it should be disabled by default, even if it is built into the kernel. --Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
Re: HDD Problem
> You guys are not overclocking are you ?? No! Just because I have a BP6 doesn't mean I'm overclocking it. The HPT controller has always done this. Would more messages help, eg bootverbose? I tried DDB on 4.0 and ctrl-esc didn't get out of this state. --Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
