I might want to take some time off and start reading man pages again. However, my expectation was that the card would have been configured automagically, despite the lack of the BIOS; or, more specifically, I would expect the PnP code to auto-configure all PnP devices if there seems to be no PnP BIOS support. Is there any particular reason (besides lack of interest or resources) for no implementing this?
