Hello

I'm trying to get Linuxbios work on a Wincomm WPC-660
mainboard having VT82C686B southbridge and VT8601A
northbridge (both from Via). Basically I've just copied the
Via Epia code, replacing the VT8231-southbridge code with
the VT82C686-code. So far the only sign of life is flashing
of the keyboard lights after reset, so it's not totally dead.
The serial port,  however, does not work.
Has anyone actually used this southbridge code ?
Any ideas how to try to get it work ?

Jarmo
