Great.

Here's what I got back from Via about this:
	VT3336 is a chipset for AMD Athlon/K8 CPU. Due to K8's unique
	architecture, the AGP resource and behavior are different from
	the traditional AGP which resides only in chipset. AGP is used
	by 3D driver which wasn't available for the VT3336 and VT3364
	generation until now.  Unfortunately, by testing, VT3364 works
	but VT3336 doesn't. That is why the subtraction. I think other
	options are leaving it in the AGP, but removing it from our DRI
	driver. Or, just leave it in both but warn people for issues in
	the release note.


So it sounds like it would be good to remove that id.

thanks,
