Right, and the kernel will display something like this if it finds it.

smapi0: <SMAPI BIOS> at iomem 0xfe9a0-0xfe9bf on motherboard
smapi0: Version: 0.83, Length: 32, Checksum: 0x43
smapi0: Information=0x7<REAL_VM86,PROTECTED_16,PROTECTED_32>

Nope, not with DEVFS.

I'm guessing that the orm(4) driver has claimed that BIOS region.  You'll 
have to load the module from the loader.

Add 'smapi_load="YES"' to /boot/loader.conf
