I'm new to LinuxBIOS. I think sb means Southbridge.
Yes. SB is southbridge.
I've attached the informations about North- and Southbridge I got from VIA.
Are there docs available? I think I have one of these MBs around here somewhere.
Hmmm... Seems I have a differnt MSI board. But I see these are only about 50 bucks on ebay. And I do have a spare Duron to go in it....
Need someone add via SB support....
The datasheets he sent look sane. Terse but the basic info appears to be there.
I looked in the tree and I don't see support for the northbridge. All I see is the 8601 and 8623 but his lspci shows VT8363/8365. Are they similar?
Worries me a bit because I see lots of "Random VIA fixups" messages in the code. Looks like there are many undocumented registers that need to be set.
