Greetings -

I'm having problems getting my tw0 driver to recognize my TW523.
I'm running FreeBSD 2.0.5 and have read both the FAQs and the 
HTML pages on building/installing the tw0 driver and hardware.
My lpt0 driver works fine when I plug in a printer, but it looks
like my tw driver fails to sync to the TW523.  I've connected
RJ-11 pin 1 to both pins 12 and 17 on my DB-25 (ie. not at the
same time) but neither seems to work.  I've checked and rechecked
the connections etc.  I'm using IRQ 7 and io port 0x378 on the 
tw0...like I said above, the parallel card works fine at these 
settings.  On boot up I consistently get tw0 not found at 0x378.
Anybody have any hints?

Thanks in advance,

- Mike
