+Description
+-----------
+
+The Savage4 chips contain two I2C interfaces (aka a I2C 'master'
+or 'host'). 
+
+The first interface is used for DDC (Data Display Channel) which is a
+serial channel through the VGA monitor connector to a DDC-compliant
+monitor. This interface is defined by the Video Electronics Standards
+Association (VESA). The standards are available for purchase at
+http://www.vesa.org . The DDC bus is not yet supported because its register
+is not directly memory-mapped.
+
+The second interface is a general-purpose I2C bus. This is the only
+interface supported by the driver at the moment.
