none@pci

I'm currently setting up a new thinkpad as a desktop. I've been working through setting up the specific hardware. When running `pciconf -lv`, I'm finding a lot of `none@pic`

How would I go about getting the `none@` devices setup? It seems they're all intel devices. Would this be a matter of finding the right drivers? Not sure what step to take next, if any.
 
As you might know, "none@.." means that no driver for this hardware / resource is active. So, in general, to get rid of the "none@.." you install the correct driver for that.
Example: none4@pci:0:0:20:3 is a wireless chip / interface, so you would do apropos wireless and try to find out if there is a driver supporting the Wireless AC-9560 chip, and install that.
For some of the devices, no driver exist (and the machine will work fine without). Examples: HECI, SOL, and probably the thermal subsystems - unless your machine has heat-related problems.

Thanks, yeah I was given the laptop as a work bonus. I thought it would be a good tool to work on learning/setting up FreeBSD. If I had a choice, I'd go with compatible hardware for sure. Still a good learning process nonetheless.
