how to enable audio in the ThinkPad 600E...

[Jon Drews]

Hi Gary:

It may be that you will have to use FreeBSD 4.10 instead of 5.2.1. I
had a 600E with FreeBSD 4.9 on it and it worked great. My parents now
use it.

I used this link to set it up and it worked great. The instructions
were very clear. The poster also provides a kernel config file and a
XF86Config file.

 Sound worked by adding:
device          snd
device          css0    at isa? port 0x530 irq 5 drq 1
device          mpu0    at isa? port 0x330 irq 0

to your kernel config file.

What worked on mine:
1) Winmodem (using /usr/ports/comms/mwavem)
2) Sound using the above 
3) USB document scanning
4) WiFi (DHCP)
5) CUPS printing
6) APM (It could suspend once)

 I say this because you may be just better off switching to FreeBSD
4.9 or 4.10.
