Hello.

I see references in the FreeBSD FAQ, install notes, etc to it supporting
some of the PC sound cards.   I have a Gravis UltraSound, and would love
to get it going.

How?  Is the support built in? Is it a seperate package? Where do I get
it? etc.    I greped all the man pages and didn't find anything except
the /dev/sound driver.  

Please mail me as well as responding here (if you wish).  Mail is
faster, and I would like to get an answer before I leave tonight if at
all possible.  

Thanks.

PS.  My Congrats to the FreeBSD and XFree86 people.  Nice package.  No
problems with the install, works well, and with fvwm, looks great.  From
a clean Harddisk to an operational X-windows system can be done in 1
hour.  Excellent.
