7190827d82STom Rhodes.Sh BUGS
7290827d82STom RhodesThe Forte Media FM801 chipset is a sort of PCI bridge, not an actual
7390827d82STom Rhodessound controller, making it possible to have soundless support.
7490827d82STom RhodesOne problem is that both chipsets, with and without sound support, use the
7590827d82STom Rhodessame PCI ID.
7690827d82STom RhodesThis makes it impossible to determine which one is installed.
