Unfortunately none of the subsystem devices on this board seem like excellent picks for a unique board match (2b80 is listed as "AMD-8111 IDE [Quartet]" in my pci.ids, but if forced I would pick LPC and USB:

Can we find a more reliable identification method than subsystem heuristics?
The original BIOS will know, should we try to pick it's mind?

The IDE collision is no problem here. It's the whole set that needs to be matched and it seems as if it is isa bridge subsystem id versus ide controller main id. So no problem there.
This seems as good a match as any, i hope that the other board Ning was mentioning differs from this.
Well, pci subsystem ids are as reliable as the board vendors. There are other options, but pci subsystem ids are very universal and easy to retrieve. Vendor error is the big let-down here, although, for the unichrome, there has been some albeit minimal positive evolution over the years.
