   I'm pretty sure I saw a SoundBlaster driver for 386bsd go by a while ago.
   However, I can't seem to find it in my archives, and I haven't been able to
   turn it up with archie or by digging around on 386bsd sites on the net.

   If I wasn't imagining the whole thing, and someone has a copy, I'd be grateful if 
   they emailed me a copy...

I ported one - it plays and records sounds on a regular soundblaster.
I found I could crash it by canceling the i/o in the middle, however.
But, as long as you don't ^C, it works fine ;-)

Has anyone else done this?  I'll post it to the group if no one else
has made this work... (and of course, I can email anyone a copy)

In a somewhat unrelated topic, I also have IP multicast up an running
on 386bsd.  If someone is kind enought to lend me some space on an ftp
server, I can ftp this *to* their server.  I don't (yet) have an ftp
server since I'm tethered by an dial-up PPP connection.
