I was wondering about that message at boot up too. It started after
upgrading to slink from hamm. I had no idea WTF lspci was, thought it
was a hardware reference. Guess I'll have to install pciutils. BTW I
did not have any problems configuring my SB16 (which I thought was a
vibra), it's a 16 bit ISA card, PNP. Just let pnpdump do it's thing,
edit the dump and then rebuild the kernel with the settings found.
Then tested it with X11Amp (compiled from potatoe sources under slink).
Now to get some real speakers instead of the 2 by nothing ones I have now.
