It's not quite clear to me what your problems are. Your output shows several messages containing "failed", but that's because the kernel looks for devices you don't have. BTW, my experience with those irq-sharing is that it doesn't always cause problems. I'm currently having this on my laptop: pci1: at 0.0 irq 9 pci0: at 7.2 irq 9 intpm0: port 0xff80-0xff8f irq 9 at device 7.3 on pci0 pcm0: port 0xf08c-0xf08f,0xf0c0-0xf0ff mem 0xfedf8000-0xfedfffff irq 9 at device 13.0 on pci0 pci0: (vendor=0x11c1, dev=0x044a) at 16.0 irq 9 pcic-pci0: irq 9 at device 19.0 on pci0 pcic-pci1: irq 9 at device 19.1 on pci0 As you see, they're all using irq 9. I'm using pci1,intpm0,pcm0 and pcic-pci0 and experience no problems. But I don't know why it works... > > The partial issue, seems to be a lack of ACPI support in freebsd, and > perhaps more than a few things related to the Toshiba BIOS. If you want ACPI support, you should use 5.0-current instead of 4.3 (see http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html). But it doesn't always work properly/immediately.
