How To Enable Sound On Boot – FreeBSD

Written by piju on June 16, 2008 – 2:55 am -

To enable sound on your freebsd,

make sure you load the driver for your sound first

kldload snd_driver

then check your sound card, detected or still not

cat /dev/sndstat

for example

freebsd# cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 32bit 2007061600/i386)
Installed devices:
pcm0: at memory 0xffa3c000 irq 16 kld snd_hda [20071129_0050] [MPSAFE] (1p:1v/0r:0v channels default)

then,

# echo 'snd_hda_load="YES"' >> /boot/loader.conf

replace ‘snd_hda_load with the type of your soundcard.

;)

enjoy your music
