Yokota-san's answer is correct here, which I've not repeated.
however, atkbdc0 is a isa device as is fdc0.
For some drivers it is easier to hack a pci fron

Thank you, Kazu. That sucks, but at least it makes sense now.

Anyone know why these devices want to attach to the ISA bus on a primarily
PCI bus machine? My MoBo is an Asus SP97-V, which has a mixture of ISA
and PCI slots. I was wondering maybe if even machines that have all PCI
slots, that there's still an internal ISA bus? Check out my dmesg.
