Hi, I'm new to freeBSD and I just installed it.  Somehow it finds my 
NE2000 compatible ethernet card, but it kept giving me ed0: device time 
out message.  I read some docs said that I should change my IRQ setting 
to -1 since my card is configurated by software instead of jumpers, then 
I tried it but still no luck.. anyone got a clue? or should I just go buy 
a network card with jumpers?  thanks in advance.
