The info and features section have  been solely sourced from the first
source.   The  second source  provides  far  more detail.   Additional
information in  the configurations section  has been sourced  from the
second.

Difference to 82497/492 is this supports 1 Mbyte to 2 Mbyte cache.

**VT82C586/A/B PCI Integrated Peripheral Controller          <10/13/96
***Info:...
***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

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.
