Since I was already digging through the entrails, I used the opportunity to switch sym0 and sym1 by rearranging the cards. The PC164 has four PCI slots. The number indicates the PCI device ID a card will have when plugged into the corresponding slot: (top) 9 ######## 5 ######## 7 ############ 6 ############ I switched sym0 and xl0, moving xl0 from 5 to 7 and vice versa for sym0. When I powered the box back up, xl0 was gone. It didn't show up as an unknown device in SRM's "show dev" any longer, and although FreeBSD recognized a device it wouldn't attach a driver. pciconf output properly identified the card. (It's an old 3C905-TX, no B or C revision.) My PC164 doesn't appear to be sensitive to where I put the other cards (Tekram DC-390UW, Matrox Mystique, noname '810AE). Is the 3C905 known not to work in 64-bit slots? -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
