From the source I see, that the i82801db and i855pm is supported. Is the i855pm compatible to i855GME ?
It should be, but according to Ron, the i855 was never supported and working. It was checked in but it would not survive ram init. Has anyone gotten further than this on an 855?
As far as the southbridge, the i82801db src has some bugs, first the src refers to it as an ICH5 when it is an ICH4 chip (just text errors), also the PCI ID devices are not defined in pci_ids.h or they should just be hardcoded into the src drectly, and lastly it does not offer ethernet support. I have fixed all these bugs but have not submitted a patch yet because I have not been able to test it.
Someone might be able to do so. Just send it to the list.
