 i don't really see it in the dmesg. and the pciconf says it's not there
either....
for kldstat i have:
o# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    9 0xc0400000 5e73f4   kernel
 2    1 0xc09e8000 5884     snd_ich.ko
 3   14 0xc09ee000 56270    acpi.ko
 4    1 0xc2767000 17000    linux.ko

i'm thinking the card is screwed up somewhere internally...  thanks...
