NAME
     sbc -- Creative Sound Blaster ISA and compatible bridge device driver

SYNOPSIS
     device sbc

     Non-PnP cards require the following lines in /boot/device.hints:
     hint.sbc.0.at="isa"
     hint.sbc.0.port="0x220"
     hint.sbc.0.irq="5"
     hint.sbc.0.drq="1"
     hint.sbc.0.flags="0x15"

DESCRIPTION
     The  sbc bridge driver allows the generic audio drivers including pcm(4) to
     attach to the following ISA sound cards:

     *	 Creative SB16, SB32, SB AWE64 (including Gold) and ViBRA16

     *	 Advance Asound 100, 110 and Logic ALS120

     *	 ESS ES1868, ES1869, ES1879 and ES1888

     The value of flags specifies the secondary DMA channel.  If  the  secondary
     DMA channel is C, set the flags to (C | 0x10). For a sound card without the
     secondary DMA channel, the flags should be set to zero.

DIAGNOSTICS
     sb_dspwr(XX) timed out.  A command to the DSP has timed out.  Check the I/O
     port configuration.

     bad irq XX (5/7/9/10 valid)  The IRQ given to the driver is not valid.

HISTORY
     The sbc device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 4.0.
