+Description
+-----------
+
+The ICH (properly known as the 82801AA), ICH0 (82801AB), ICH2 (82801BA),
+ICH3 (82801CA/CAM) and later devices are Intel chips that are a part of
+Intel's '810' chipset for Celeron-based PCs, '810E' chipset for
+Pentium-based PCs, '815E' chipset, and others.
+
+The ICH chips contain at least SEVEN separate PCI functions in TWO logical
+PCI devices. An output of lspci will show something similar to the
+following:
+
+  00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2418 (rev 01)
+  00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2410 (rev 01)
+  00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2411 (rev 01)
+  00:1f.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2412 (rev 01)
+  00:1f.3 Unknown class [0c05]: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2413 (rev 01)
+
+The SMBus controller is function 3 in device 1f. Class 0c05 is SMBus Serial
+Controller.
+
+If you do NOT see the 24x3 device at function 3, and you can't figure out
+any way in the BIOS to enable it,
+
+The ICH chips are quite similar to Intel's PIIX4 chip, at least in the
+SMBus controller.
+
+See the file i2c-piix4 for some additional information.
