Well, apparently Thomas Girard discovered the problem for me. Entering: set hw.pci.allow_unsupported_io_range=1 at the loader prompt in 5.1-RC1 (and probably both BETAs) fixes everything right up! I'll be returning to my favorite O/S, FreeBSD, from Debian Linux with the release of 5.1-RELEASE. Hurray! -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.
