I wondered what would happen under RedHat 7.3 so I installed it on a
spare partition. I hoped that this may be helpfull to pinpoint the
problem with freebsd.
Under RedHat7.3, the sis900 works without any special configuration.
Here are the sis related lines in the dmesg output on RedHat 7.3:
...
PCI: PCI BIOS revision 2.10 entry at 0xfdb01, last bus=1
PCI: Using configuration type 1
PCI: Probing PCI hardware
PCI: Using IRQ router SIS [1039/0008] at 00:02.0
isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
...
Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 6.31
ide: Assuming 33Mhz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx
SIS5513: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 15
SIS5513: chipset revision 208
SIS5513: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
SiS650
ide0: etc
...
ip_conntrack (3839 buckets, 30712 max)
sis900.c: v1.08.03 2/1/2002
PCI: Assigned IRQ 5 for device 00:03:0
eth0: Realtek RTL8201 PHY transceiver found at address 1.
eth0: Using transceiver found at address 1 as default
eth0: SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet at 0xd400, IRQ 5, ...(mac address).
eth0: Media Link on 10mbps half-duplex
And that is the last dmesg line in the RedHat7.3 version.
I do hope that this helps in providing sis900 support under freebsd.
