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.
