: I have 2 Asus A8V motherboards running FreeBSD 6.0 and 6.1 (amd64) and I see

: sio0: port may not be enabled
: sio0: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 flags 0x10 on acpi0

: The ports are enabled in the BIOS and do seem to work.. mostly. I have had odd
: problems trying to talk to stuff connected to the on occasion though.
:
: I have another [custom] driver that is based on sio.c and it shows the same
: warning (it is a PCI RS485 card).
:
: I have tried playing with various ACPI & ATPIC settings in the BIOS but no
: change. If I disable ACPI in the kernel the IDE driver fails to activate it's
: IRQ and then panics a bit later...
:
: I have updated to the latest BIOS but it had made no change.

: Hmm actually I just looked through the code.. It appears that this happens
: because isa_irq_pending() is a noop unless isa is in the kernel, and it isn't
: in GENERIC. Perhaps those tests in sio.c should be conditionalised on isa
: too?
isa_irq_pending can only really be called on isa bus attachments...
Why don't you have ISA in your kernel. I thought it was still required.
