Hi, All.

I don't have this problem, but i saw it in several users reports.
System can't detect some devices. Last example (from one report):
Windows/Linux detected LSI MegaRAID SAS 8408E RAID Controller on
an motherboard, but freebsd didn't detect.

Windows detects it as

Device Description   LSI MegaRAID SAS 8408E RAID Controller
Bus Type   PCI-X
Bus / Device / Function   4 / 14 / 0
Device ID   1000-0411
Subsystem ID   1000-1001
Device Class   0104 (RAID Controller)
Revision   00
Fast Back-to-Back Transactions   Not Supported

Device Features
66 MHz Operation   Supported
Bus Mastering   Enabled

PCI-X Device Properties
64-bit Device   Yes
133 MHz Operation   Supported
PCI-X 266   Not Supported
PCI-X 533   Not Supported
---------------------------------------

So, question is why freebsd can't detect this device?
