add a line to your kernel config file with : device ehci or options ehci... I'm not sure. Check your kernel config file, it should be the same as ohci! ... sorry I'm not in front of my fbsd box. Also don't forget to enable DMA for your drives. you can switch DMA (it should be on for HD) for CDROM/CDRW through /boot/loader.conf #sysctl -a | gep dma to see HDD status #sysctl -a | grep atapi to see CD status Guy Van Sanden wrote: >Silly question Dany, how do I enable EHCI? > > > >On Mon, 2004-03-01 at 17:11, Dany Nativel wrote: > > >>Have you enabled EHCI support ? >> >>Even with EHCI enabled the speed won't be that great.
