Is K7S6A supported by flashrom?

[spirals]

Hi, Ran flashrom and it reports "No EEPROM/flash device found", same 
with  -m ecs:k7s5a.  Any suggestions how I can test further. I am 
running Lenny and my cpu [an AMD 2600] is being mis-reported as 1406?  
regards, Dave (dja.)

Please send the output of "flashrom -V", "lspci -nnvvvxxx", "superiotool
-dV" and if tell us if your board is
K7S6A (V1.0)
or
K7S6A (V1.0A)

Luc: BIOS downloads are here (not sure which PCB is the one Dave has):

Without the output of flashrom failing and an lspci -vvvnnxxx i will not 
even attempt looking at that bios.

Please provide the requested info :)

No need to look. The K7S5A is supported. I successfully flashed 5
K7S5A without a hitch. Carl-Daniel marked it as supported already.

Oops, I just realized I didn't look closely enough. spirals was
talking about a "K7S6A", not "5A". I guess that board is slightly
different. Sorry for the fuss, it's already a bit too late tonight.

Ah, ok, this was later received out of thread.

Please check a recent flashrom version, it might detect your chipset.
