They work fine for me on my laptop :-). However, there's a known issue, that's hard to resolve, on some laptops. If you aren't using ACPI, then you may have to specify the host bridge's starting memory address as a tunable (in /boot/loader.conf). hw.pci.host_mem_start defaults to 0x80000000. Some systems require a higher address. Try using 0xc0000000, 0xd0000000, or 0xf0000000. If that's not the problem, then I'll need a more complete dmesg. Warner
