(update) Gigabyte GA-7ZXE v1.1

[Charles M]

In the last message I stated the board was 1.0, but it's actually 1.1
(the board was a little dirty and I mistook the 1.1 for 1.0).

Superiotool didn't find the super i/o chip. From a quick glance it
appears to be a VIA VT82C686B chip.

Cheers,

Charles

Thanks for correcting me about the southbridge Sean. I found what I'm
pretty sure is the super i/o chip now. It's a Hynix Y29F002IC chip.
It's located near the end of one of the PCI slots. I'm not totally
sure about the IC part of the chip number, it could be 1C or 7C, but
IC makes the most sense.

That would be the BIOS Flashchip, a Hynix HY29F002TC. Libv might have
to get involved since enabling the flash will probably involve a GPIO
and/or special board enable.

Provide:

flashrom -V from a recent flashrom version.
lspci -vvnnxxx

to the mailing list.

The output of:
dd if=/dev/mem of=/tmp/ga-7zxe.system.rom bs=64k count=1 skip=15

to me personally.
