none12@pci3:10:0: class=0x040100 card=0x10061102 chip=0x00071102
rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Creative Labs'
device = 'CA0106-DAT Audigy LS'
class = multimedia
subclass = audio
So, at the very least, FreeBSD knows there's *something* there, it just
doesn't grok what it is that's there.

I grok some C, but I've never dealt with PCI peripherals before. I've
only ever coded at the application level.

That would be the chip=0x00071102 piece?

Thanks, I'll give it a go and see what happens. :)
