I can't remember) and had a bunch of problems, too. Once configured, it would work fine. It was a source of trouble every time I added or removed hardware, though. If you get fed up, go buy a cheap PCI card. Those have always "just worked" for me. > This is how my dmesg looks like, booting in -verbose mode (windows > says the card is NE2000 compatible is at IRQ 5 and has an i/o range > 02a0-02bf): =09Have you tried configuring the kernel to use these settings? > ed0 failed to probe at port 0x300-0x31f iomem 0xcc000 irq 10 on isa0 [...snip...] > unknown: failed to probe at > port 0x280-0x29f irq 10 on isa0 =09FWIW, these are the only relivant lines from dmesg. > device=09=09ed0=09at isa? port 0x300 irq 10 iomem 0xcc000 =09Try re-compiling your kernel without the iomem part. I seem to recall doing it without iomem. Also try it with other port values and without the iomem value. =09=09=09=09=09=09=09Jaime -- Network Administrator Cairo-Durham Central School District To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
