Nor do I ;-) I suggest you try on the hardware list, try filing a PR, or be bold and email the author of the driver. PR is probably the recommended route, but don't quote me. Just to be clear, if the device is not attaching then nothing you do with pciconf or in any config file will make any difference. You could also try: google for your specific error "rid 0x10 is ioport" If this is 5.4, try downloading and booting from 6.0 CD (just CD1 should be required) and see if that spots it. When you get into sysinstall you can hit "Pause" then "Page Up" to see the boot log. If this is 6.0 then vice versa! Your card is listed as apparently 5.4 compatible, but manufacturers just go and change things so cards which worked in one revision, fail in another. --Alex
