Author: yongari Date: Fri Dec 18 18:45:36 2009 New Revision: 200676 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/200676 Log: Document more VIA Velocity family controllers to vge(4). Previously it mentioned only VT6122. While I'm here remove the mention of VT3119 which seems to be VIA's internal model name and VT3119 wouldn't be available to end users.
