[oi-dev] Build 151 status update

[ken mays]

Hi Ken,
 
The Envy24/HT drivers were not migrated yet for native support under OpenIndiana's Illumos-gate.
 
Don't bother with audio810 and audiohd driver as you'd want the Envy24HT driver overall for better usage
with your card.
 
I'd do the migration if time allows.

So audiohd is the driver we should be using with all those cards?  It
would seem that although there are a number of cards in the matrix on
the HCL page, none have been confirmed as working? Or am I missing
something here?

I've rem_drv audiohd since I couldn't get any sound at all whilst it was
installed and the system insisted on using it regardless of my
incantations to the contrary.  audio810 at least makes some noise but is
otherwise useless.

I've "tested" audiohd specifically with Audiotrak Prodigy HD and can
confirm it doesn't work.  I also have another "generic" (Chaintech)
Envy24 based card that I guess I'll pop in after I've had my coffee
(rough night with the puppy), and a few other legacy cards that I may be
able to dig up.  I think I have a wiki account now, so I'll update as
appropriate.
