Date: 22 Feb 1994 11:09:22 +0100 Organization: The Home Of The Pilhuhn Lines: 23 Message-ID: <2kclki$su@pilhuhn.pilhuhn.sub.org> NNTP-Posting-Host: pilhuhn Hi! Recently I fetched the psm driver for FreeBSD out of the packages directory. Following the instructions that came with it I discovered that there already was an entry for psm in conf.c with all the functions declared as "nodev". This was entry number 21 despite of the installation instructions telling me to use major number 16. I dropped in the necessary declarations and made the devices /dev/psaux and /dev/psauxblock with a major number of 21 then. The kernel compile went fine, but when booting the new kernel I get a message like: psm0 not probed due to port conflict with sc0. cat /dev/psauxblock doesn't work, either. Any hints?
