Thanks. No problem now that I understand things. It works after
I turned that flag on in the BIOS. Sorry my message wasn't clearer.
I'd suggest adding that clump of code to the Tulip and DEFPA drivers
when it is convenient. I doubt if I'm the only one who who will
run NetBSD on a PC without knowing their way around the BIOS.
Or maybe it should get ripped out of other drivers so that everybody
learns about this quirk? :)
