Module Parameters
-----------------
+======================= =======================================================
force_addr=0xaddr Set the I/O base address. Useful for boards that
- don't set the address in the BIOS. Look for a BIOS
- upgrade before resorting to this. Does not do a
- PCI force; the via686a must still be present in lspci.
- Don't use this unless the driver complains that the
- base address is not set.
- Example: 'modprobe via686a force_addr=0x6000'
