Gzipped tarball with relevant files for this bug

Trying to install Ubuntu Linux 15.10 on an older machine and Xorg fails with
the dreaded "Unknown Card-Ids" error.

I saw that someone else on the Debian lists had a similar problem with other
machine and solved it himself by adding the missing card ids to via_id.c and
recompiling the driver. I did it myself to and got it working. I'm not a
developer though, and much less a driver developer - so, instead of the cute
diffs, I'm attaching the logs, info about my setup and my own via_id.c which
worked for this rig. I only added one line to the latest release I got through
anongit.

Notice that the attached via_id.c is how I got it working, but:

1) By reading the C file a bit more carefully, I realize I kept the extra
"VIA_DEVICE_LCD}" there probably by mistake. This board has only got one
standard monitor out (i.e.: no DVI, HDMI or extra "notebook" out). It's your
call, though. ;-)

2) I've used the board's DMI info (also splashed on the boot screen) to include
the entry in via_id.c. Feel free to alter it if needed (you're the maintainers,
after all).

Thank you for maintaining this driver.
