There's probably a quirk handler somwhere in there for this unit, or it's possible that the ESCD data lists it as not available.

Yes; my feelings were that given that it's trying to automatically assign one it makes more sense to correct the information it's using rather than to heavy-hand it into a choice for which it has no justification. > > I did that; it didn't help.

The pcic is, I *think*, the part marked TC183GT6JF. I seem to recall Tatsumi saying that he had tried to get data on this one and failed. The controller is detected as an i82365, FWIW. mikehome | help
