The 1542CP has a new version ID and the driver doesn't "unlock it's mailbox". I've dropped a patch off available via anonymous ftp at freebsd.org in "incoming/1542cp.diff". This is untested (no 1542 available) but it should work, and it tries to get around this problem in the future by treating anything that looks like it is probably a new board like a new board. If anyone tests it let me know how it works. The context diff is relative to -current but will probably work with 2.05 or -stable. -- Peter Dufault Real Time Machine Control and Simulation HD Associates, Inc.
