viaideinfo - Displays the information of installed VIA IDE controllers

Description:

This command-line application identifies VIA IDE controllers installed in the
computer, and displays various information/statistics regarding these. This
does not depend on the via82cxxx kernel IDE driver, and will work regardless of
whether it is present or not. All this information used to be available through
/proc/ide/via; however this file was removed in Linux 2.6.15 to reduce the
complexity of the IDE driver. Since it performs some basic port I/O, it must be
run as root.

Supported devices:
	VT82C576, VT82C586, VT82C586A, VT82C586B, VT82C596A, VT82C596B,
	VT82C686, VT82C686A, VT82C686B, VT8231, VT8233, VT8233C, VT8233A,
	VT8235, VT8237, VT8237A, VT8251, VT6410, VT8237S, CX700
