If the modules for PS/2 and USB are present, the kernel will use the information, which it gathers on bootup about the IRQs, to solve the PnP problems. Not having those modules forces the kernel to blindly ignore the otherwise used IRQs, so there can occur IRQ conflicts. Windows always has all modules so this problem wonīt happen. Another point to your NIC. Is it a combo version with 10base-2 and 10base-T ? Then mabe itīs adjusted to listen to the 10base-2 port or the autosensing doesnīt work properly. Get vendorīs DOS-tool to check this out. Ciao Siegbert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the messagehelp
