I have never tried this but you might give it a shot...Look up the
defaults for the com ports that bsd uses and then run the
dos program ICU (Intel pnp configuration utility) off a dos boot
disk...Set it your SupraModem to whatever bsd is defaulting to.
Hopefully when your machine boots up, your bios will set your
pnp card to the address/irq you specified in the icu program and
maybe then freebsd will recognize it at the default settings.
*ACK* I hate pnp => good luck
