I've just loaded FreeBSD 4.0 on a HP Brio 200 (PCI bus for peripherals only).
I'd love to get this AST-style ports card configured to run modems and
terminals.

My experience is limited to the isa version of this card, so I'm in the
dark as to what the kernel needs in order to find the card/ports.

SIO man page claims:
device		sio	## is the only thing needed in the kernel.

This is supposed to be a plug and pray card..so far I'm only praying!

What I've done so far...

1) Turned off appropriate things in BIOS.
2) Made new kernel including pci controller and sio device without setting
   ports, irqs or the like.
3) Rebooted and searched for pci~anything in dmesg.
   * this is all I get:
========
pcib0: <Intel 82810 (i810 GMCH) Host To Hub bridge> on motherboard
pci0: <PCI bus> on pcib0
pci0: <Intel 82810 (i810 GMCH) SVGA controller> at 1.0 irq 10
pcib1: <Intel 82801AB (ICH0) Hub to PCI bridge> at device 30.0 on pci0
pci1: <PCI bus> on pcib1

atapci0: <Intel ICH0 ATA33 controller> port 0x1800-0x180f at device 31.1 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
pci0: <Intel 82801AB (ICH0) USB controller> at 31.2 irq 11
pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x8086, dev=0x2423) at 31.3 irq 9

=========
Any help in this would be greatly appreciated!
