I'm wondering if you would be able to add support for my motherboard.  Here
is the information for my board:

My details are:

CPU: AMD Athlon XP1800+
Northbridge: Via KT266A(VT8366A)
Southbridge: Via VT8233
Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-7VTXE

lspci output:

00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8366/A/7 [Apollo KT266/A/333]
00:01.0 PCI bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8366/A/7 [Apollo KT266/A/333
AGP]
00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Linksys NC100 Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet

The 3COM/USR modem, Adaptec AIC7892B and Linksys NC100 Ethernet card are not
on-board.  These are additional PCI cards installed in the machine.

Super I/O Chip:

I ran lm_sensors and sensors-detect to find out the Super I/O Chip.  This is
what it said:

Probing for `ITE 8705F Super IO Sensors'
Success... found at address 0x0290

It also found the same one again, when scanning for Secondary Super I/O
Sensors:

Probing for `ITE 8705F Super IO Sensors'
Success... found at address 0x0290

hope this is enough information.

BIOS Type: PLCC

If you require any further information, please do let me know.  This is all
I'm able to find out from my system so far.

Regards
