It's not getting probed now as part of > pci init. because pci thinks it is a bridge. I presume 'sci' means 'scsi'? Does the card actually have a bridge on it? If so, what sort of bridge? If it's a PCI:PCI bridge, then you want to find the devices on the other side. If it's a generic bridge, then you just add a probe for the vendor/ device ID in the normal fashion (it should have a unique ID, not just the ID of the bridge chip). I've done this before with a custom board using an off-the-shelf generic bridge; if you want to look at the code, ask doconnor@gsoft.com.au, but you may need to prove that you're not obligated to disclose to Raytheon first. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
