Initially, this was the issue, before other people sent various howtos around 
the probe of the hdmi hda port (which by the way sounds *much* better than my 
previous cmi board).

Afterwards, the PCI board remained in the machine (leftover from a previous 
box), but it is still *not* seen by the PCI enumeration (I'm a bit too lazy 
to find another spare PCI board and plug it in see what happens : is it also 
ignored by the BIOS/ACPI/whatever and/or the kernel ?).

It seems that it is not either detected by a Linux kernel.
