Lauri-

The pci vendor/product id's are frob'd for your pcic's but the
kernel didn't attach 'em. To do this justice, it would be helpfult
to see a dmesg output (/var/run/dmesg.boot) and your kernel config.

The pcic issue is probably an irq issue _or_ a BIOS issue. Make
sure that your BIOS is set such that

Plug and Play OS = NO

_or_

Supported OS = WinNT (not Win9x)

This might help with both pcic and the ata driver.

The XFree86 thing would depend on whether you are using version 3.3.6 or
4.0.x.

As for the soundcard, I would do the following:

option PNPBIOS
device pcm

(you'll need to cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV snd0)

I would also change all of the

device sioN at ...

entries to a simple

device sio

(this presupposes PNPBIOS works and the BIOS settings are as
 noted above).

HTH,
S
