Just VIA naming dissonance...

VN800=VM800=P4M800PRO

I just went with VM800 cos that's what the sticker on mine said.
All the motherboard manufacturers called them VM800's... VIA calls it 
the VN800... but then in their code they call it  the P4M800PRO:-

	VIA_P4M800PRO, PCI_CHIP_VT3314

although.... other #defines they use for the chip are CN900:-

	case VIA_PM800:
		write_regx(CN400_ModeXregs
	case VIA_P4M800PRO:
		write_regx(CN900_ModeXregs

I guess marketing and development are in different buildings. :)

I think they called it the CN900 if it was combined with a C7 but 
P4M800PRO if it was combined with a P4.... perhaps they just put the 
letters in a bag and decided to pull out a handful to decide what to 
print on the chip.

Doesn't really matter, it's a VT3314.... PCI ID, er, 3344. :D
