Of course some one knows this, but does FreeBSD support 2 NICS? I have a 3com 3c905 and a 3com 3c509 in my box, but no matter how I adjust the configuration file, I cannot get the 509 to be recognized. I could put the Ne2000 clone in there instead, but the 509 is a better card. Also, does the sio driver support PCI sio boards? The 3com / US Robotics 56K faxmodem is an sio card with a modem on the other side, so that the computer should be able to talk to it as a 16550. Though the IO address may be a bit strange (in the 0x4000 or 0xa000 range). I guess this boils down to 2 questions, IO space as well as PCI interrupts. And as soon as I find out more information, I plan on modifying pciconf to be able to parse more of the PCI BIOS information instead of just the vendor and card IDs, unless someone has already done so. Where should I send the changes? Thanks Brian Moffet To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
