NEC Versa SX. Ricoh Cardbus controller RL5c478, Intel PIIX4 chipset.
The irq's for the devices agree with the bios (lspci -v and seeing the

Doesn't help mine.
By the way, As of 2.3.39 or one of those, the video adapter in this laptop
seems to have gotten WAY slower. Some things (xanim, xengine) aren't
effected, but things like xmms, window managers, etc have a considerable
slow down when they display anything.
I'm writing this message from the laptop using an rsh session to another
machine. The link is 10mbit with no other traffic on the network. As I
type this, it feels like I'm on a modem link even though I'm not.
