Dear sirs,
I am running NetBSD-1.0_BETA circa October 11 sources, and as of then,
the sound driver for the SB16 is not functional (i.e. an *.au file catted
to /dev/audio hangs the process). Sorry if this was answered before, but
has this problem been fixed in -1.0? The FreeBSD camp had somewhat of a
hack to the sb driver, in that you add three calls to a function
tenmicrosec() after each call to outb. However, I found that this
function is not part of the NetBSD library, thus I get undefined symbols
when recompiling the kernel. Is there a function equivalent to FreeBSD's
tenmicrosec() in NetBSD? Or is this just because the FreeBSD sb driver
is completely different?
Thanks for any replies/suggestions.
