Winmodems are built just for the win market and are cheap because the controllers are left off and the controlling function is done by software you have to install to use the modem. FBSD only works with internal modems that have onboard controllers. So open your box and remove the modem card if you do not want to see the unknown message in the boot log. While you have the box open eyeball the other cards in the expansion slots to find out what they are. Play with the PC's bios turning off functions to see if the other unknown message goes away to id what they are. If you are running FBSD 4.6 try pnpinfo command. The bottom line is you can ignore those messages as they will not hurt FBSD. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of wlw zhang Sent: Wednesday, July 31, 2002 2:36 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Question regarding finding and loading device modules for 3 unknown card device Hi, After build a 4.6 kernel for my DELL OptiPlex GX110, I have 3 unknown device card with command `dmesg|grep unknown`: pci1: (vendor=0x1106, dev=0x3044) at 10.0 irq 11 pci1: (vendor=0x134d, dev=0x7897) at 11.0 irq 9 pci0: (vendor=0x8086, dev=0x2413) at 31.3 irq 10 All the cards are following, (vendor=0x1106, dev=0x3044) is a IEEE 1394 PCI card. (vendor=0x134d, dev=0x7897) is a modem PCI card. (vendor=0x8086, dev=0x2413) an intel buildin card, don't know what's it used for. Question. 1. How do I find out all device entries in my kernel conf file? so that I can rebuild it, LINT doesn't seem help at this point. 2. Can I not rebuild my kernel, but just use loader.conf to load those modules at boot time? If yes, where can I find those modules? not sure /boot/defaults/loader.conf will help. 3. Can I use "kldload"? if yes, same question as 2, where can I find the modules for those? Thanks in advance. Regards, Bill P.S. I attached the whole dmesg if you want to see it. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
