ViBRA16X and /dev/dsp

2000-02-17 Thread Thimble Smith
Hi. I'm still trying to figure out why /dev/dsp isn't working with my ViBRA16X card. I wrote a little program to test the device. The trouble is, I don't know what I'm doing and have not found much in the way of documentation. I'm hoping someone can give me a hint, so I can figure out what's g

sbc and ViBRA16X - dsp device not working

2000-02-10 Thread Thimble Smith
[ Long post, almost a narrative. Sorry. ] Hi. A month ago I installed -current on a new computer, and the dsp device didn't work. It reminded me of why I'd rather not be running -current, so I dropped back to -stable and everything worked fine. Now I saw that a release was coming up, so I want

Bus error in isatty() from /usr/lib/libc.so.3

Hello. I have a reproducable problem which gdb says is ending up at 0x2818d862 in isatty() from /usr/lib/libc.so.3. A full back trace is below. If this is a problem in FreeBSD, I'm very glad to do any experiments that might be helpful. If it's a problem somewhere else, any pointers on what I m
