No sound

Just installed pcbsd and my sound card wasn't detected. maybe. Before I installed the os, I downloaded a driver for linux for my sound card but I don't know how to install it, if indeed that is what I need to do. Bottom line, how do I get sound?  Thanks.

Re: No sound


David,

I could use a bit more information here. What type of sound card are you 
using? What's the specific model number? I may be able to find a driver, 
or come up with another way to make it work.

PCBSD 1.5.1 kernel panic

Hello Support,

I have a new computer built with a foxcon motherboard
see a FreeBSD 6.3 Stable (as of 5-13-2008) dmesg here http://www.puffybsd.com/pcbsd/6.3.txt

when I try to install PCBSD 1.5.1 I get a kernel panic when usbd loads see a Digital camera pic here
http://www.puffybsd.com/pcbsd/00005.jpg

I noticed that FreeBSD 6.3 Stable fresh install panics as well. if I boot into single user mode and disable usbd
it boots fine, I csup'd the latest source tree for 6.3 and re enabled usbd and  everything works.

so my question is, how do I roll a updated  install CD set , as I have  just built 4 of these computers
all needing PC-BSD / Wine. is there a step by step HOW-TO, somewhere that in the end will produce iso files
that I can burn to a CD.


Thank you for your help

Sam Fourman Jr.

Sam,

I don't have a way at the moment for you to roll your own ISO / set of 
PC-BSD. However can you boot the install CD into single user mode also, 
then disable usbd in rc.conf, and continue booting to the installer? 
That may help you get around this crash, and at least get the system 
installed. Once the system is up, then you can patch / re-roll the 
kernel any way you need.

well FreeBSD 6.3  boots with usbd enabled, after a fresh csup and recompile of generic. so I was wondering is there going to be a PC-BSD 1.5.2 in the future?

and I will try the single user mode idea, that is how I got around 6.3 to disable usbd in the first place, I just have to figure out how to disable usbd without rebooting. the method I used before was comment it out of rc.conf and reboot,then it worked. so I was able to csup and compile, I actually added the debugger to the kernel me and John Hixson were going to debug the problem, then it just happened to work.

disable KDM in PCBSD 1.5.1

I have a machine that is running PCBSD 1.5.1 and I need to boot into a console to csup
so I need to disable kdm but there is no line that says ttyv8   "/usr/local/bin/kdm" xterm   on  secure

in /etc/ttys

how would I disable kdm on startup because this computer panics on hald when it starts xwindows

Edit /etc/ttys and disable /PCBSD/bin/pdm, which in turns calls KDM :)
