Chris,

I think I have the same or similar problem.  I too have an ISA PnP modem 
(Zoom V.90 Faxmodem) and have recently installed 4.0-RELEASE (a fresh 
install).  I have added an entry to the PnP ID array in sio.c and rebuilt 
the kernel.  No luck.  The machine in question is at home so I don't have 
the exact dmesg output but it detects the modem as "Unknown0 <56K Faxmodem> 
at port 0x3e8 irq 5" or something similar.

If I put an sio2 entry in my kernel config I get "irq5 not in bitmap" or 
something similar to that effect.  If I leave out the sio2 entry, I get a 
"Cannot assign resource" error when the aforementioned 'unknown' device 
scrolls by.

This modem has worked previously with 3.x versions of FreeBSD in the past 
and has worked under Linux as well.  I'll try to grab my dmesg output when 
I go home and post it as well if anyone thinks it would help.

Thanks,
Craig
