The problem may be with allocating resources by ACPI PCI-PCI bridge. There is a way to set needed values: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-acpi/2008-May/004905.html I am still not sure where is the exact problem!

I would like to work on this and any help is welcome Best Regards -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFJZwRdxJBWvpalMpkRAuP0AJ9gn2sc9vF2emPfqEBxl7suNYNzTgCePbWp k8L3cDbNfYYxJ6gT6b/541g= =wZlz -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
