I believe that the transcription error was mine, not yours; however, I've tried it with 0x800000, too, and that doesn't work for me, either. And of course the final parameter is flags, not an address. I was just being a dufous. My card is, however, a close relative of yours, not actually your card . . . (This whole process is awkward right now as I try something . . . take notes . . . reboot under Linux . . . send & read mail . . . take notes . . . reboot under FreeBSD . . . . back to the beginning. I've now gotten a card that works under FreeBSD and I've managed to get networking working there with the other card, after various unrelated false starts. So once I can transfer my files between the two O/S's [awkward due to the inability of FreeBSD to read logical partitions; I can write stuff from Linux, but again it means I keep rebooting to shuffle things . . . I'm now pursuing the possibility of using vmware to fine-tune my FreeBSD setup while retaining access to Linux . . .) Pat Wendorf wrote: > > Hey Babbler, > > The number was 0x80000 (not 0x8000).
