See my earlier post.  Hardware seems fine.

Unfortunately, I don't have the time to deeply involve myself in the
ins and outs of these things, but if someone has a notion of what's
wrong, I can modify and test.  Powermac 7500 w/G3 upgrade, mc0, Other
than a video card, no other pci cards.  NetBSD current as of 2 Oct
2004, but I can download most recent.  Or 2.0 RCxx?

Anyone with a clue?
