Dear Jared,
Thanks a lot for the prompt reply!
After I sent the bug-report I tried to install the GENERIC_LAPTOP kernel
and it really did a good job on detecting the card.
Now my netbsd box runs very well...
I will compare what's difference between GENERIC_LAPTOP and GENERIC to
figure it out.
Regards to NetBSD team!
Joey

Hi Joey --
The device isn't even showing up as 'not configured', which could mean
one of a few things:
1. Your motherboard may need the following additional options:
options PCI_ADDR_FIXUP # fixup PCI I/O addresses
options PCI_BUS_FIXUP # fixup PCI bus numbering
2. This may be a bug in 4.0.1 that has been fixed in 5.0_BETA.
3. If the card is built-in, it may be disabled in the BIOS.
4. The card is installed incorrectly or faulty.
Hope this helps,
Jared
