At least one model of the Gateway 2000 P5-90 comes with a SoundBlaster
"clone" sound card. This clone card does not have any distiquishing marking
that would allude to a brand name; it has Mitusumi and Sony CDROM interfaces;
and has very strange port and IRQ address. Before starting the battle, I am
wondering has anyone has successfully gotten the sound card driver software
in FreeBSD to work on one of these "clone" sound cards?

thank-you.
