I'm hoping someone will be able to help me out with the audio is
the Geode CS5536.  This has come up a few times before, once early
this month and once last February.  The CS5530 driver mentioned on
the soundsystem wiki doesn't work.  I've fixed the obvious
compatibility problems with it and RELENG_7 so it loads, but
bus_alloc_resource() fails during attach.  Not being much of a
kernel hacker, I'm at a loss as to why that is.  
The databooks from AMD for the CS5536 and from National for the
CS5530 are publically available.  Below are links:

Original FreeBSD gx5530 driver: 
	http://63.249.85.132/gx_audio/index.html

My patches for RELENG_7 compatibility:

The CS5530 datasheet from National Semiconductor:
	http://www.national.com/mpf/CS/CS5530A.html

The CS5536 datasheet from AMD:
	http://www.amd.com/us-en/ConnectivitySolutions/ProductInformation/0,,50_2330_9863_9864^13054,00.html

I'd be happy to try whatever people suggest, or even provide access
to a RELENG_7 or -current machine running this hardware.  Remote
debugging options are limited because there are no serial ports on
this hardware.  If you're interested access to a machine, mail me
an ssh public key.  

Thanks much.
