Um, well, duh, turns out I had the ROM BIOS set to hand IRQ 11 over to PCI/PnP. Changing that setting to allocate the IRQ (and DMA channel 5) to ISA/EISA (and changing the card back to IRQ 11) also solved the problem. Why it worked for IRQ 9 (which is set the same way) is a mystery to me. Thanks to Warner for dropping that hint. -Frank McConnell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
