You should have included the output of your dmesg with your original post... Anyway, the GENERIC kernel has sio2 and sio3 disabled by default. You can boot and enter -c at the boot prompt, followed by v to enter the visual config editor and enable sio2 and sio3 (they'll be in the bottom section when disabled and it the top section when enabled) or you can build a custom kernel (good idea to get used to do this anyway). See http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook50.html#125 Also, be sure to select IRQs that are NOT shared with any other devices. This ain't Winblows, ya know... Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
