That's a supported chipset:

    happy-idiot-talk:~:% grep viapm /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT
    # viapm         VIA VT82C586B,596,686A and VT8233 SMBus controllers
    device          viapm

You need to add:

    device              smbus
    device              viapm
    device              smb

to your kernel config, and build yourself a new kernel.  Works fine
for my VT8233 SMBus controller.

        Cheers,

        Matthew
