Default why i don`t have volume control
Today, I have install for first time PC-BSD, so I am total newbie on this system (but I have a lot exp. in Linux). Now all hardware which I have is operational exepct volume control. I can move slider in Sound Mixer and this register mixer (konsole program) but I don`t have any changes in output volume. In /dev/ I don`t have device pcm (I assume that is problem). How can I fix this problem?
Ps. I have installed SB Live! 5.1, and I instlall emu10k1 prog form pcbsd/downloads but I don't have any changes...

Default Re: why i don`t have volume control
On FreeBSD (my friend possess him) solution was in /usr/src/i386/config/GENERC write line device pcm but I don`t have it (GENERIC). Is this config in /PCBSD/conf/PCBSD.i386 ?

nop, PCBSD.i386 is installcd kernel. System default is PCBSDv1.2.

Antik, Kmix should be running on the taskbar by default. We shouldn't have to activate it afterwords.

If you don't have sound card then why you want to use KMix?

Default
(if a sound device is detected)

This is one of the things we should work on regarding
hardware detection.

Compiling kernel in PC-BSD is exactly the same as in FreeBSD 6.1. You can find original PC-BSD kernel config file in /PCBSD/conf/PCBSDv1.2.

Add "device pcm" line in kernel config and follow the instructions:

Code:
# cvsup /root/standard-supfile
# cd /PCBSD/conf
# mkdir /root/kernels
# cp PCBSDv1.2 /root/kernels/MYKERNEL
# ln -s /root/kernels/MYKERNEL
/etc/make.conf
Code:
CPUTYPE=i686 #i486, i586, i586/mmx, i686, p2, p3, p4, athlon,athlon-xp, athlon64, opteron
RELEASETAG="RELENG_6_1"
SUP_UPDATE=yes
SUP=/usr/local/bin/cvsup
SUPFLAGS=-g -L 2
SUPHOST=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
SUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile
PORTSSUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
#DOCSUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/doc-supfile
KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
CPU optimization works only for ports not for kernel...

Change to the /usr/src directory.
Code:
# cd /usr/src
Compile the kernel.
Code:
# make buildkernel
Install the new kernel.
Code:
# make installkernel
Code:
reboot
