Try the port for the digitallogic adl855pc or whatever it is. modulo 
Intel's unwillingness to tell us how the chips actually work I think the 
structure is close to right. 

The Arima HDAMA is still the gold standard, but it is really way more 
complex than a simple 440bx system. That's why I like the digitallogic 
port better as an example.
