Bus 0, device 10, function 0:
SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7892A U160/m (rev 2).
IRQ 12.
Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=40.Max Lat=25.
I/O at 0xa800 [0xa8ff].
Non-prefetchable 64 bit memory at 0xdf000000 [0xdf000fff].
Bus 0, device 0, function 0:
Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C693A/694x [Apollo PRO133x] (rev 196).
