Turns out that the only unknown PCI device on my system is the modem. Intel 82801CA/CAM (ICH3-S/ICH3-M) AC'97 Modem Controller in class "simple comms". I suspect virtually all newer system use this Intel chip with the Agre WinModem built in. I further suspect that we have no access to the information needed to program the codec and Agre and Intel only release the information under an unacceptable NDA. I've be very happy to find out that I am wrong about the last suspicion. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
