SND_SBC(4)	       FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual		    SND_SBC(4)

NAME
     snd_sbc, snd_sb16,	snd_sb8	-- Creative Sound Blaster ISA and compatible
     bridge device driver

DEPRECATION NOTICE
     This driver is scheduled for removal prior	to the release of
     FreeBSD 14.0.

SYNOPSIS
     To	compile	this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device sound
	   device snd_sbc
	   device snd_sb16
	   device snd_sb8

     Alternatively, to load the	driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following lines in	loader.conf(5):

	   snd_sbc_load="YES"
	   snd_sb16_load="YES"
	   snd_sb8_load="YES"

     Non-PnP cards require the following lines in device.hints(5):

	   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 snd_sbc bridge	driver allows the generic audio	driver sound(4)	to at-
     tach to Creative Sound Blaster ISA	(mostly	SB16 or	SB8, known as Sound-
     Blaster Pro) compatible audio cards.

     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.

     The snd_sbc driver	supports the following sound cards:

     o	 Avance	Asound 110
     o	 Avance	Logic ALS100+
     o	 Avance	Logic ALS120
     o	 Creative SB16
     o	 Creative SB32
