Hello Dieter, As far as the i855pm compatible to i855GME, should be compatable. Intel likes to add letters on to the end of the chipsets for slight variations in the same chipset. As far as the southbridge, the i82801db src has some bugs, first the src refers to it as an ICH5 when it is an ICH4 chip (just text errors), also the PCI ID devices are not defined in pci_ids.h or they should just be hardcoded into the src drectly, and lastly it does not offer ethernet support. I have fixed all these bugs but have not submitted a patch yet because I have not been able to test it.
