00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8363/8365 [KT133/KM133] (rev
81) 00:01.0It's interesting that everyone who is experiencing these problems has the *revision 81* of the VT8365 chipset! This should be the key...
You know, we might be barking down the wrong tree. (Arf.)
From my findings revision 81 is KL133/KL133A (and only KL133 is affected
by clearing bit 5 in 0x55, KL133A works fine in both configs). KM133/KM133A have revision 84, and KM133 is affected (I have no idea about KM133A).

So far, everybody who has reported video corruption seems to have a Savage or ProSavage video card. Maybe it'd be a better idea to
Because of they are integrated with K[LM]133...

look at the ProSavage data sheets and see if we should be tweaking something there? That would be much safer than playing around with the northbridges.
As now we have also report (from G550 user) that PCI -> AGP transfers are broken when bit 5 is cleared, I think that playing dangerous games with northbridge is only way to go.
