Probably would be best just to have everything in northbridge/cx700, to avoid any confusion. Either that, or we can probably hack the vt8237r code to make it work for both, so there's not two separate sets of nearly identical code. > > >> If that's the case, CX700 should work with CN700 code > > They've probably tweaked it a bit.

We'll know a lot more once we get working on this, and also once I get the CN700 docs (which I'm still waiting on Via on, deadline's been pushed back thankfully, but I'm still desperate for 'em). >> Also, the device IDs are entirely different, and so are some of the >> registers.
