Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

22 Problems?
23
24 Q: You have VT82C586B on the motherboard, but not in the listing.
25
26 A: Go to your BIOS setup, section PCI devices or similar.
27 Turn USB support on, and try again.
28
29 Q: No error messages, but still i2c doesn't seem to work.
30
31 A: This can happen. This driver uses the pins VIA recommends in their
32 datasheets, but there are several ways the motherboard manufacturer
33 can actually wire the lines.
