I have a SB16 and FreeBSD 2.1R. It works fine for digital audio (though all I've done is cat files to /dev/dsp, nothing special), as long as I disable the printer. I could probably use a printer as well if I changed the IRQ. I can't get the MIDI to be recognised though, although I haven't tried that hard. -- Michael Searle - searle@longacre.demon.co.uk
