Ahh, sorry.  Here is the info from lspci -vn (looks like the PCI ID is
two 16-bit numbers ; ) ):
05:00.0 0300: 10de:0140 (rev a2)
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 12
        Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64M]
        Memory at e0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
        Memory at ec000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
        [virtual] Expansion ROM at ed000000 [disabled] [size=128K]
        Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2
        Capabilities: [68] Message Signalled Interrupts: 64bit+

Would you like me to add this to the RedHat bugzilla, the Xorg
bugzilla, or both?  Looks like most people have been adding to the RH
one.
