Date: Sat, 10 Oct 1992 14:50:00 GMT Lines: 16 Thanks to the excellent driver sources posted (the Mach 386) for Sound Blaster Pro, there is now a working driver for 386BSD. Josh Osborne and myself will be releasing the hacked up driver later today. Seems to work OK. Thanks to the original author, Steve Haehnichen, for releasing his code. Also, the port to BSDI that was done by John Kohl was most helpful in getting it to run. As soon as we get a "play" command whacked together that supports on the fly Sun ulaw encoded sound conversion (probably will do NeXT style sounds too), we will post the sources. -Kurt -- /* Kurt J.
