I notice the FreeBSD home page says that PNP PCI cards
are not supported and that those features must be
turned off for PCI ethernet cards to work. Does the
kernel config file device entry for the card stay the
same? I have an entry that looks like:

device le0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 5 iomem 0xd0000 vector le_intr

yet the le probe does not find the card. This card is found
by the le driver on NetBSD-1.1 BTW.
