Yes, I know.
But no one of the DRI developers have one, yet (am I right???).
Look into the Linux Kernel Mailing List. I saw some posts about the "brand
new" AMD 760/760MP. They are very similar (they are designed in collaboration
with VIA, all based on the VIA Apollo MVP).
Try AGPGART with "unknown chipset" or the like.
I would recommend you to look at the dual Athlon MP 1.0/1.2 GHz) on an AMD
760MP based Tyan Thunder K7 mobo.
It rooks. Much like a dual Alpha...

Dieter
