But have been less fortunate in my search for information on configuring an internal modem. I have run dmesg and at lp0 there is a TCP/IP capable interface is this my card? If not what should I be looking for? Should I have the BIOS set to plug and play capable OS, it is at the moment? Also I have a AGP video card with a S3 86C365 (at boot it calls it 8904) chip, however BSD seems to skip it as it supports almost ever other S3 but mine, is there somewhere I can download a driver for it? And how do I put it in? I am new to this game and finding it difficult to find sights with good relevant information, so if you know of any please feel free to list them. > > > > I have just started using FreeBSD 3.0 And have run into a brick wall > > trying to get it on line.
