What's the difference between "built in" and "on the PCI bus"? Both
types are physically a part of the mainboard, and need to be quirked, right?
The corner case I was referring to is where someone plugs an *external*
VIA-based PCI card into a PCI slot on a VIA motherboard. In that case,
the PCI card gets quirked too, when it didn't need to be, and this may
or may not cause problems...

I don't know much about PCI. How can I detect this?
Alternatively if you (or anyone else who knows PCI) wants to write a new
patch or modify the existing one I would have no objections. I can also
get a few people to test it.
Thanks.
Daniel
