82C611 should be compatible with 82C621, but I didn't have databook for
611, only for 621. Also, only supported 621 version is on PCI bus and in
2.1.x kernels. Sorry. You can change opti621.c driver to detect 611 too,
and you (after some changes) compile it with 2.0.x. I can send you
databook (textfile extracted from Postscript) for 621.
