Applied (with some minor changes) in r2698, thanks a lot!

Can you post a list of hardware parts or features which work ok
with the current code and which don't (or at least not fully)?

It it usable enough to add it to
http://linuxbios.org/Supported_Motherboards
as (fully or partially) supported?

And/or are you willing to write a small HOWTO/tutorial for the wiki?

Thanks, Uwe.

Nevermind, I just saw that you already posted such a list.

Added as "OK" (but yellow as the keyboard is not working, yet). It's also
announced on the main wiki page and in the news section.

This would still be nice :)

the board should definitly be a "yellow" as of now.

I will do further tests and try to rework interrupt routing (not all slots 
seem to get an interrupt though).
