Mark,
Unlike IBM's, Sony's and Dell's require that you take the pcic out of
"polling" mode by giving pcic an IRQ of its own. You can do this by
rebuilding your kernel with an IRQ on device pcic0. Or you can use two
other ways to set it outside the kernel, of which I only know one: put
"ir pcic0 9", or whatever IRQ you choose, in a file called
/boot/kernel.conf and make sure /boot/loader.conf includes
userconfig_script_load="YES". See the list archives for the other way
to do this, although this should be sufficient.
BTW, IRQs 0, 1, 2, 8, and 13 are never available to the end user.
HTH,
Greg
