The VESA support code requires vm86 support. Make sure your kernel

If you want to statically link the VESA support code to the kernel,
add the following option to the kernel configuration file.
options "VESA"
The vidcontrol command now accepts the following video mode names:
VESA_132x25, VESA_132x43, VESA_132x50, VESA_132x60, VESA_800x600
The VESA_800x600 mode is a raster display mode. The 80x25 text will
be displayed on the 800x600 screen. Useful for some laptop computers.
vidcontrol accepts the new `-i <info>' option, where <info> must be
either `adapter' or `mode'. When the `-i adapter' option is given,
vidcontrol will print basic information (not much) on the video
adapter. When the `-i mode' option is specified, vidcontrol will
list video modes which are actually supported by the video adapter.

HARP | Host ATM Research Platform
===================================
HARP 3
What is this stuff?
-------------------
The Advanced Networking Group (ANG) at the Minnesota Supercomputer Center,
Inc. (MSCI), as part of its work on the MAGIC Gigabit Testbed, developed
the Host ATM Research Platform (HARP) software, which allows IP hosts to
communicate over ATM networks using standard protocols. It is intended to
be a high-quality platform for IP/ATM research.
HARP provides a way for IP hosts to connect to ATM networks. It supports
standard methods of communication using IP over ATM. A host's standard IP
software sends and receives datagrams via a HARP ATM interface. HARP provides
functionality similar to (and typically replaces) vendor-provided ATM device
driver software.
HARP includes full source code, making it possible for researchers to
experiment with different approaches to running IP over ATM. HARP is
self-contained; it requires no other licenses or commercial software packages.
HARP implements support for the IETF Classical IP model for using IP over ATM
networks, including:
o IETF ATMARP address resolution client
o IETF ATMARP address resolution server
o IETF SCSP/ATMARP server
o UNI 3.1 and 3.0 signalling protocols
o Fore Systems's SPANS signalling protocol
What's supported
----------------
The following are supported by HARP 3:
o ATM Host Interfaces
- FORE Systems, Inc. SBA-200 and SBA-200E ATM SBus Adapters
- FORE Systems, Inc. PCA-200E ATM PCI Adapters
- Efficient Networks, Inc. ENI-155p ATM PCI Adapters
o ATM Signalling Protocols
- The ATM Forum UNI 3.1 signalling protocol
- The ATM Forum UNI 3.0 signalling protocol
- The ATM Forum ILMI address registration
- FORE Systems's proprietary SPANS signalling protocol
- Permanent Virtual Channels (PVCs)
o IETF "Classical IP and ARP over ATM" model
- RFC 1483, "Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM Adaptation Layer 5"
- RFC 1577, "Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
- RFC 1626, "Default IP MTU for use over ATM AAL5"
- RFC 1755, "ATM Signaling Support for IP over ATM"
- RFC 2225, "Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
- RFC 2334, "Server Cache Synchronization Protocol (SCSP)"
- Internet Draft draft-ietf-ion-scsp-atmarp-00.txt,
"A Distributed ATMARP Service Using SCSP"
o ATM Sockets interface
- The file atm-sockets.txt contains further information
What's not supported
--------------------
The following major features of the above list are not currently supported:
o UNI point-to-multipoint support
o Driver support for Traffic Control/Quality of Service
o SPANS multicast and MPP support
o SPANS signalling using Efficient adapters
This software was developed under the sponsorship of the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

stability now. ALso modify /sys/conf/files, /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC
and /sys/i386/conf/LINT to add entries for the XL driver. Deactivate
support for the XL adapters in the vortex driver. LAstly, add a man
page.
(Also added an MLINKS entry for the ThunderLAN man page which I forgot
previously.)
- ppbus now supports PLIP via the if_plip driver
- ieee1284 infrastructure added, including parallel-port PnP
- port microsequencer added, for scripting the sort of port I/O
that is common with parallel devices without endless calls up and down
through the driver structure.
- improved bus ownership behaviour among the ppbus-using drivers.
- improved I/O chipset feature detection
The vpo driver is now implemented using the microsequencer, leading to
some performance improvements as well as providing an extensive example
of its use.

Two labels PRE_DEVFS_SLICE and POST_DEVFS_SLICE will deliniate these changes.

This code does not support the following:
bad144 handling.
Persistance. (My head is still hurting from the last time we discussed this)
ATAPI flopies are not handled by the SLICE code yet.
When this code is running, all major numbers are arbitrary and COULD
be dynamically assigned. (this is not done, for POLA only)
Minor numbers for disk slices ARE arbitray and dynamically assigned.

_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options to work. Changes:
Change all "posix4" to "p1003_1b". Misnamed files are left
as "posix4" until I'm told if I can simply delete them and add
new ones;
Add _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls for FreeBSD and Linux;
Add man pages for _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls;
Add options to LINT;
Minor fixes to P1003_1B code during testing.
Uncommented css0. It compiles OK.
Moved trix0 so that it compiles OK when uncommented. Uncommented
it. Drivers with the same interrupt handler must be together in
config files so that config(8)'s simple avoidance of redundant
declarations of interrupt handlers works (config emits a declaration
unless it would duplicate the previous one).
Commented out NO_LKM. Negative options should not be configured
in LINT. There should be no negative options for subsystems.
LKMs should never have been standard or the default.
If you want to play with it, you can find the final version of the
code in the repository the tag LFS_RETIREMENT.
If somebody makes LFS work again, adding it back is certainly
desireable, but as it is now nobody seems to care much about it,
and it has suffered considerable bitrot since its somewhat haphazard
integration.
R.I.P
This introduce an xxxFS_BOOT for each of the rootable filesystems.
(Presently not required, but encouraged to allow a smooth move of option *FS
to opt_dontuse.h later.)
LFS is temporarily disabled, and will be re-enabled tomorrow.
This is Junichi's v1.0 driver.
NOTE: Major device numbers have been changed to avoid conflict with other
FreeBSD 3.0 devices. The new numbers should be considered "official."
This driver is still considered "beta" quality, although we have been
playing with it. Please submit bugs to junichi and myself.

(mutant) Crystal CSS4236 chip on the Intel PR440FX SMP motherboard.
XXX this uses some rather ugly PnP bootstrap code that is *NOT* compatable
with 'controller pnp0' or *ANY* other PnP devices. If you use some other
PnP devices, enabling css0 will burn your house down. :-] The
"simplified" PnP init sequence directly blats your config(8) settings onto
the chip. I'm pretty sure 'css0' will conflict with 'mss0', this whole
area desperately needs a cleanup.
I have been using the following with some success on the PR440FX:
controller snd0
device css0 at isa? port 0x534 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x08 vector adintr
device opl0 at isa? port 0x388
device mpu0 at isa? port 0x330 irq 10 vector mpuintr
Here are the remanding changes required to support the Ensoniq
Soundscape using FreeBSD 3.0-current.
Notes:
1) ad1848_init already has code to detect if DMA_DUPLEX should
be set so it is not necessary (and is in fact a mistake) to
hard code setting it. Not all soundcards (i.e. the current
sscape driver) are capable of using DMA_DUPLEX.
2) The other changes are hopefully self explanatory. Feel free
to let me know if you need additional information.

follow.
* Rename/reorder all of the pccard structures, change many of the member
names to be descriptive, and follow more closely other 'bus' drivers
naming schemes.
* Rename a bunch of parameter and local variable names to be more
consistant in the code.
* Renamed the PCCARD 'crd' device to be the 'card' device
* KNF and make the code consistant where it was obvious.
* ifdef'd out some unused code
i was at it, do no longer insist on `PCVT_FREEBSD' being declared in
the config file, but default it to a reasonable value.
More cleanup to follow, but this part is safe for RELENG_2_2, too.
- CPU_CYRIX_NO_LOCK enables weak locking. If this option is not set and
FAILESAFE is defined, NO_LOCK bit of CCR1 is cleared.
- CPU_WT_ALLOC enables write-through allocation.
