Well, this driver is based on 2.6.16 Longhaul. I have a couple of 
small patches for C3 which I would like to send first. I would like 
to help, but I don't have access to any motherboard with C7 CPU. 
I can't test it. I just think that there is no need to add my version 
to kernel when there is official VIA driver available.
