My system shows the same PATA controller; [EMAIL PROTECTED]:15:1: class=0x01018a card=0x80ed1043 chip=0x05711106 rev=0x06 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'VIA Technologies Inc' device = 'VT82xxxx EIDE Controller (All VIA Chipsets)' class = mass storage subclass = ATA The only difference is that your chipset has a higher revision number. But it is recognized without problems: atapci1: <VIA 8237 UDMA133 controller> port 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6,0x170-0x177,0x376,0xfc00-0xfc0f at device 15.1 on pci0 This is on STABLE: FreeBSD slackbox.xs4all.nl 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #0: Sat Sep 9 14:46:57 CEST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/RFS amd64 Roland -- R.F.Smith http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/ [plain text _non-HTML_ PGP/GnuPG encrypted/signed email much appreciated] pgp: 1A2B 477F 9970 BA3C 2914 B7CE 1277 EFB0 C321 A725 (KeyID: C321A725)
