Chipset VIA Apollo Pro+?

[Mats Erik Andersson]

Hello,

is there now, or has there been, someone interested
in the legacy chipset VIA Apollo Pro+? In the sense
of investigating its use with Coreboot.

The northbridge is VIA VT82C693, and the southbridge
is VIA VT82C596A on a mainboard from ECS:

PCI-bridge     VT82C691,
   AGP-bridge     VT82C598,
   ISA-bridge     VT82C596A,
   IDE-interface  VT82C571,
   USB-controller VT82C572, and
   Power-ctrl     VT82C596.

A search for datasheets has given nothing but trivial
information.

Regards,

Mats Erik Andersson, fil. dr

I have the datasheet of this chipset. I'll send it to you later. I was
one working with legacy BIOS on moatherboard with this chipset.
