    Set it to no. FreeBSD 5 only sort of works with it set to yes.

    Well, FreeBSD is still not able to talk to the card ok. Not sure why, but PCI
    express changes several things including how one talks to PCI cards, so the
    fact that it is a PCI express chipset may break things enough for it not to
    work right now.
