>Description:
Simple change to the pci database is needed to properly report an nVidia GeForce 8400M GS. Right now it's incorrectly listed for entry 0427.
I know the pci_vendors file is autogenerated so this change should be made upstream?
Here's the way it's listed TODAY using pciconf -lv:
vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x30cc103c chip=0x042710de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Nvidia Corp'
device = 'unknown Geforce 8600'
class = display
subclass = VGA
It should be:
vgapci0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x30cc103c chip=0x042710de rev=0xa1 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Nvidia Corp'
device = 'GeForce 8400M GS'
class = display
subclass = VGA
>How-To-Repeat:
use "pciconf -lv"
You have to have this actual card in the computer of course!
>Fix:
Here's a patch against 7.0-RELEASE (although if the file is auto-generated it has to be fixed someplace else?)
