Is it possible that this might be why the FreeBSD code couldn't > change the IRQ? I assume you mean the configuration 0 in the Windows 95 property page. This is the default from the PnP configuration. You must have an error in your configuration information if IRQ 5 is taken by something else. What you probably ned to do is go into the PnP BIOS configuration and tell it IRQ 5 is taken by an ISA card. PS: If your BIOS doesn't know this, then FreeBSD isn't going to be able to know it either...
