***Versions:
VT82C586
VT82C586A
VT82C586B  c: 12/23/96, source: VT82C586B datasheet.

Not 100% sure, but the VT82C586A seems to be the same as the VT82C586,
renamed after the introduction of the VT82C586B.

VT82C586B:
from: http://www.viatech.com/support/faq.htm
available at:https://web.archive.org/web/19990423214228/http://www.viatech.com/support/faq.htm
 
Q: What is the difference between the 586A and 586B southbridge chip?
A: The only difference is the 586B supports ACPI (power management) 
   and the 586A doesn't.

The data in this document is sourced from the VT82C586A datasheet.
