Agreed. But before I prepare a patch for pci_ids.h, I want to be sure that
a) the PCI-IDs are really correct (the PCI-IDs are from
pciids.sourceforge.net, which should be OK)
b) those variants of the nForce? chipsets support smbusses that are compatible
with the already supported nForce2/3/4 smbusses.

Thanks as well.
