    By the way, what about the VIA VT86C686 based on-board sound? The
    FreeBSD snd_via82c686 driver seems to be broken for a long time
    already. At work we actually had to buy a license for OSS for some
    bunch of (7) machines with this adapter on-board which we needed to
    have sound on.
