Ok. That is really weird!
Thanks for the dmesg outputs.

Right, well unfortunatly you cannot do that. The memory
mapping of the bt848/878 should be done by the BIOS.
I do not know any way to get FreeBSD to do it.

Ok. First of all, I would suggest trying to look for a
BIOS upgrade. Be carefull. They can go wrong and leave
you with a non-working system.

Otherwise, the option is to put PnP OS to YES and to get
FreeBSD to initialise your PnP settings for you.

This is much easier in FreeBSD 4.0 which is released in about
15 days time.

For 3.x, you need to do things like this.
1) Put PnP OS enable to NO
2) Boot up
3) as root, type pnpinfo
4) email me the output
5) Put PnP Os enable to NO
6) Boot up
7) as root, type pnpinfo
8) email me the output

I can then tell you your hardware specific PnP setup
commands.

Bye
Roger
