I am running 5.2.1-RELEASE on a Pentium 3. The PC has an integrated parallel port that works fine, but I am trying to add a new ISA parallel port card that worked fine on my RedHat 7.2 box. In RedHat I could cat /proc/dma, /proc/ioports and /proc/interrupts to get a list of resources that are not in use, but I'm not sure how to get the same information from BSD. I found vmstat -i for interrupts, but how do I get the data for io ports and dma channels? My /boot/device.hints file has 2 entries for ppc: hint.ppc.0.at="isa" hint.ppc.0.irq="7" Would I need to specify DMA or io port for the new card which I think would be ppc.1 Thanks! Rob
