Hi,

I have Asus motherboard p4ge-mx. The details are here

North bridge :- Intel 845 GE South bridge:- Intel ICh4(FW828201DB)

Please let me know whether I can use linuxbios in my system. Looking
forward!!!

The northridge is not yet supported, but the datasheet is available and
it's probably similar to the 855PM (which is supported) so it's just a matter
of Someone Has To Do It (tm), I think. The ICH-4 seems to be supported.

What Super I/O is on the board? It's probably a Winbond chip(?)

Is the BIOS socketed or soldered on?

Hi,
 Thank you for reply.

My super IO is Winbond chip W836275hfa

And the bios is socket chip is SST 494003A 334cnh.

Please let me know how i can contribute so that Make is Intel 845GE North bridge to work.

regards
Gopinath

I guess this is a 49(L?)F008A, the 33-4C-NH marks speed, operating
temperature range and package.

Hi,

I think I have misspelled it. I will check it. I will also check the
bios Information.   And Thanks for the information. I try contributing
to this project.

Regards,

Gopinath

this? Is it a w83627hf or w83627thf? Both of those are supported.

Can't find information on that either. Please check whether this list

contains your chip:

North bridge to work.

If you have some experience with C and/or low-level programming, grab

the datasheet from

http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/datashts/251924.htm

and start implementing ;-) Have a look at the existing 855PM code in

svn, my guess is that you can re-use some code.

Uwe.
