Hi Bruce,
Care to test the latest Alpha for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10
release - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing ? The reason I ask is because
it looks like this patch is already included:
commit dcd981a77b2b35d169656d4b9cee208096ed7ccf
Author: Greg KH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

agp/via: fixup pci ids
add a new PCI ID and remove an old dodgy one, include the explaination
in the commented code so nobody readds later.
(davej also sent the pci id addition).
