Hello,

I have couple of 4-Stable PC's and two 5.3-'cvsupped'.

One of the 5.3 gives my some trouble with the video card,
but what I find strange is that the card is not listed in
the dmesg output. All I see is:

  pci0: <bridge, PCI-unknown> at device 7.3 (no driver attached)
  pci0: <display, VGA> at device 16.0 (no driver attached)

However, 'pciconf -lv' tells me:

  none1 at pci1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0xff00102b chip=0x1001102b rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
     vendor   = 'Matrox Electronic Systems Ltd.'
     device   = 'MGA-G100 Twister AGP'
     class    = display
     subclass = VGA

Is something wrong with my configuration or is this just a new
'feature' of the 5.X kernel?

Rob.
