+Gravis UltraSound/UltraSound MAX device driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "gus0 at isa? port 0xPPP irq X drq Y flags Z"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm gus
+driver provides support for the Gravis UltraSound (GUS) and GUS MAX
+audio cards. Both cards have on-board memory which is used for
+seamless playback of samples. They can play back 8- or 16-bit samples
+at up to 44.1kHz. They can record 8-bit samples at up to 44.1kHz.
+The UltraSound MAX is a full-duplex sound device, and if
+configured with two DRQ channels can be used for simultaneous playback
+and recording. The I/O port base is jumper-selected, and may be chosen
+from 0x210-0x260 in steps of 0x10. (The normal setting is 0x220.) The
+GUS takes 16 ports at its base address and 8 ports at its base address +
+0x100.
+.Pp
+The IRQ is software programmed, so you may select any IRQ from the set
+{3,5,7,9,11,12,15}. The DRQ lines are software programmed, and may be
+chosen from {1,3,5,6,7}. The flags field in the configuration file line
+specifies a second DRQ line for recording. If there is no flags field
+in the config file, the playback channel will be used for recording DMA
+and only half-duplex mode will be available.
+.Pp
+The Gravis UltraSound MAX has an additional CODEC onboard which is
+addressed with four ports at an offset of 0x10C from the base ports
+(0x31C-0x36C).
+.Sh BUGS
+The full-duplex features of the GUS MAX have not been fully tested, and
+full-duplex on the original GUS may not be possible at all.
+.Pp
+Only two voices on the GF1 synthesizer chip are used by this driver (for
+left and right channels).
+.Pp
+Manipulating the mixer while audio samples are playing can lead to
+device driver confusion (and maybe even a system panic).
+.Pp
+Manipulating the mixer device seems to create pregnant system pauses,
+probably due to excessive interrupt masking.
+.Pp
+The joystick and MIDI port interfaces are not supported.

+device driver appeared in NetBSD 1.1.

+SoundBlaster family (and compatibles) audio device driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "sb0 at isa? port 0xPPP irq X drq Y"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm sb
+driver provides support for the SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster Pro,
+SoundBlaster 16, and hardware register-level compatible audio cards.
+.Pp
+The SoundBlaster series are half-duplex cards, capable of 8- and 16-bit
+audio sample recording and playback at rates up to 44.1kHz (depending on
+the particular model).
+.Pp
+The base I/O port address is usually jumper-selected to either 0x220 or
+0x240 (newer cards may provide software configuration, but this driver
+does not directly support them--you must configure the card for its I/O
+addresses with other software). The SoundBlaster takes 16 I/O ports.
+For the SoundBlaster and SoundBlaster Pro, the IRQ and DRQ channels are
+jumper-selected. For the SoundBlaster 16, the IRQ and DRQ channels are
+set by this driver to the values specified in the config file. The IRQ
+must be selected from the set {5,7,9,10}.
+.Pp
+.Sh BUGS
+The driver has not been extensively tested on original SoundBlaster,
+SoundBlaster 16, or newer cards.
+.Pp
+The FM synthesizer, joystick and MIDI port interfaces are not supported.
