NAME

       snd_ich — Intel ICH AC'97 and compatible bridge device driver

SYNOPSIS

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

             device sound
             device snd_ich

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

             snd_ich_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

       The  snd_ich  bridge  driver  allows  the  generic audio driver sound(4) to attach to Intel ICH AC'97 and
       compatible audio devices.

       Some later chips, like ICH6/ICH7, depending  on  wiring  can  instead  implement  newer  Intel  HD  Audio
       specification, which is supported by snd_hda(4) driver.
