You can also tell via 'pciconf -lv' from FreeBSD, or 'show conf' at the SRM prompt. The 64-bit slots are directly on the main pci bus; the 32-bit slots are behind a dec pci-pci bridge. If your video board is in a 64-bit slot, it should appear on bus 0. Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
