I just applied a patch to my 2.1.7 box for cyclades pci support.  My 
problem is that I cannot get the cy0 device to compile in my kernel (at 
least it doesn't show up in dmesg.

Here's what I did, and if anyone can tell me something I might try to get 
it to work, I am listening.

1) Card is installed
2) applied patch 
3) did ./MAKEDEV from the /dev dir to make devices
4) cp'ed cy_pci* files to the /usr/src/sys/pci directory
5) changed ownership of these files to root and wheel
6) made them same perms as others -rw-rw-r--
7) added device cy0 to kernel file just above my de0 device for ethernet
8) recompiled kernel (about 5 times acutally)
9) rebooted with reboot after compile finishes

Still no cyclades!  

What are my options?

Is the cyclades card bad?

Should I build a whole new and differently named kernel from GENERIC and 
not eliminate anything to see if it is probing?

Can I probe the device manually?

At this point, I will try almost anything.
