Lets try this again: When this card *IS* set to respond (via hard JUMPER) to 0x280, it is NOT probed at that address. Period. There is NO other hardware at that address. I have managed a *temporary* work around by allowing FBSD to see it at 0x300 (where it *insists* that this card be!) while remapping another device to 0x280. Unfortunately, this "fix" will only work on *one* box. I have 5 more that require this card at the 0x280 address in order to accomodate wt0 at 0x300 (since their Archive controller boards won't allow me to remap them: the one board which *was* remapped had a Wangtek controller). ---------- From: Doug White Sent: Monday, May 04, 1998 4:14 PM To: J.A.

Because there is something already at 0x280 OR your card isn't set to respond on that port?
