Yes.  SB is southbridge.

Hmmm... Seems I have a differnt MSI board.  But I see these are only
about 50 bucks on ebay.  And I do have a spare Duron to go in it....

The datasheets he sent look sane.  Terse but the basic info appears to
be there.

I looked in the tree and I don't see support for the northbridge.  All
I see is the 8601 and 8623 but his lspci shows VT8363/8365.  Are they
similar?

Worries me a bit because I see lots of "Random VIA fixups" messages in
the code.  Looks like there are many undocumented registers that need
to be set.
