In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Why can't the driver enable the card instead. I can not shut the PNP OS settings off on my mobo because of a Compaq "hack". Because of that my Asante 10 does not start up - it does get detected though. Under Linux, it detects that the card has not been enabled by the BIOS and then it does it for me. That would be a really great feature for the FreeBSD driver as well. It would probably be nice with Sound Cards too.
