I still cannot load my Compaq Netelligent. Anybody with one of these?

As far as I got debugging it, it seems to me that it is a problem mapping
the CIS in the xe_probe() routine. The bus_alloc_resource(9) function returns
ok, but the first tuple read is 0xff, meaning end. I have no experience
dealing with bus allocation to know if the returned value from
rman_get_bushandle() is ok.
Is there a handbook or any reference for the newbus susbsystem? The
FreeBSD handbook pages on this are (intentionaly left) blank.
TIA,
Jonny
