I hope I'll be able to come up with a solution to this problem (i.e. maybe scan *twice* for problematic PCI IDs, once to detect the chipset and once for finding out about the *real* chip, e.g. by searching for other IDs on the board that indicate such-and-such chip) We could also add an "advice" string for each entry in the pci_adapters list maybe. That way we could print some warnings/hints for certain adapters. (such as "try using it87 chip driver for misdetected SiS 8895 modules") -- Microsoft Licensing 6.0: "Pay us now in advance, so that we can own you later."
