Hello,

on a i386 system running 2.0_RC4 the VGA card _sometimes_ does not attach:

	ATI Technologies Radeon 7000/VE (VGA display) at pci1
	  dev 0 function 0 not configured

Of course wsdisplay fails now because of the lack of vga[0-9]...

But sometimes the card attaches just fine:

	vga0 at pci1 dev 0 function 0: ATI Technologies Radeon 7000/VE
	  (rev. 0x00)

...and after the next restart the card may or may not attach; I couldn't
find a pattern so far.

What could be the source of this problem? Faulty vga card? Something
else?


Hints are welcome.

Jukka
