Thanks Freddie!  I had read both the NOTES files, and didn't seem to have
a /usr/src/UDPATING file.  But when I read through your howto I found what
I needed.  The commands involving "snd_driver" were what I was looking
for, it seems.

Now that I have my sound working, I just need to figure out how to get the
radeon mobility 7000 driver to compile on here.  But that will be another
thread.  For now, VESA works ok.

thanks again,
