Hi All,
I was wondering if Linux Bios would run on Gigabyte K8VNXP with Athlon 64 2800+
Bellow is lscpi print from my PC

Right now, no. I'll make a patch soon of the vt8237r stuff, but the vt8385 still isn't supported. I think in this situation the only thing the vt8385 really does is act as the AGP controller though, so working on it shouldn't be too hard. The other problem is the BIOS, is the bios chip socketed or sodiered on? BTW, your dualbios is useless for linuxbios.
Just for curiosity's sake, can you send the output of "lspci -s 0:0.0 -xxx", run as root?
