    I misspoke when I wrote that. Sorry...

    This is the section from /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/P3R-272 for the xl0 card:
    device vpo # Requires scbus and da
    device miibus # MII bus support
    device xl # 3Com 3c90x (``Boomerang'', ``Cyclone'')
    device random # Entropy device

    And this is my USB section from the same config file:
    device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface
    device ohci # OHCI PCI->USB interface
    device usb # USB Bus (required)
    #device udbp # USB Double Bulk Pipe devices
    device ugen # Generic
    device uhid # "Human Interface Devices"
    device ukbd # Keyboard
    device ulpt # Printer
    device umass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da
    device ums # Mouse
    device urio # Diamond Rio 500 MP3 player
    device uscanner # Scanners
    device aue # ADMtek USB ethernet
    device cue # CATC USB ethernet
    device kue # Kawasaki LSI USB ethernet
    device firewire # FireWire bus code
    device sbp # SCSI over FireWire (Requires scbus and da)
    device fwe # Ethernet over FireWire (non-standard!)

    I had posted the information Andy requested but the post was held for
    moderator approval. (I could not access this Email account with the
    server down.)

    I'm sorry if my frustration is starting to leak into my Email.
    I'm willing to work this through to understand what is going on and what
    I have to do to address the issue.
    Thanks.
