Hi all, i'm trying to understand why my SB16 soundcard isn't recognized by DragonFly, though working alright under FBSD 5.4: i already had a long-standing problem with ips(4) and as i've got no other controller to boot from, i had to go through a painful cycle (put printf everywhere, rebuild on another host, scp & install the new kernel, reboot, try to understand anything at all...).
As a sound card isn't that critical to the boot process, i'd like to know if an easier way of debugging exists: would it be possible to build a kernel without any sound support, instrument and somewhat hack bits of snd_sbc and friends and then use kldload/kldunload to investigate ? I mean: will the probe routines get called as they would during normal kernel initialization ? Thanks for any tips, Francis. PS: though the device names changed a little bit in kernel config files between FBSD and DFly, i'm still using the same parameters in both case (same irq, port, etc.)
