| |
Dear Reader,
i've got some PCs with the VIA vt82c686b southbridge on board. As i've read, it has an Bug. (Did VIA gave an useful official statement that can i citate to exchange those buggy boards?)
And - there is an workaround in drivers/pci/quirk.c named "quirk_vialatency". But in table "static struct pci_fixup pci_fixups[] __initdata = {" isn't an entry for that chipset. I think the following line should be added: { PCI_FIXUP_FINAL, PCI_VENDOR_ID_VIA, PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C686, quirk_vialatency },
then it worked (form /var/log/boot.msg): <6>Applying VIA southbridge workaround.
But I don't have enough time, to test all systems, if the workaround "quirk_vialatency" really works.
Thanks in Advance,
