Yep, thanks for the link.  Actually downloaded the Via opensource 
drivers last week sometime and tried them out.  They won't compile 
against any recent kernel.  So they won't work as-is.

One of the things I have been working on is the Via VT1625 HDTV Encoder 
interface.  I have the datasheets for the 1625 and the 1623 (which is an 
SDTV Encoder) and created my own tables for the 1625 registers, but 
after comparing with Via tables (in the opensource package) I was off on 
a few things.  Hopefully I will be able to finish this up tonight, 
because I have been without a frontend for about a week now (video card 
fan died and cooked it).
