} You haven't setup device hints.  You can either statically compile them into
} your kernel or copy GENERIC.hints to /boot/device.hints and edit it
} appropriately.

Has there been any resolution to this?  I've been having this problem
ever since the SMPng stuff went into the tree.  I have no success in
getting my splash screen to work anymore or in changing video modes with
vidcontrol.  The splash_bmp KLD always reports the following:

module_register_init: MOD_LOAD (splash_bmp, c037f824, 0) error 2

I have done a careful comparison of GENERIC.hints and the
/boot/device.hints that I made back when it became a requirement.  I've
searched the archives and come up empty.  I also read cvs-all
faithfully, and while I have gotten backed up on mail due to a short
vacation here and there, I haven't seen any related commits.

What have I missed in keeping up to date?
