A PCIe interface chipset is a bridge between the device's __ and the host computer's PCIe ___.

Possible PCIe bridges that can be used include:

  • ATI Theater 550
  • ATI Theater 650
  • Conexant CX23885/6/7/8
  • Micronas APB 7202A nGene dual-channel PCI-Express multimedia controller
  • Philips SAA7162 (dual A/V decoder) and SAA7160/SAA7161 (multimedia A/V bridge)

Currently, none of these chips have had Linux drivers developed; which is the prime reason why cards bearing these ICs are presently not supported under Linux.
