Non ultra 6800's - 1 or more disabled vertex processors?

"I've found the way to detect and enable/disable active vertex units on NV40 boards. The most surprising fact is that _ALL_ 6800 non-Ultra boards I've seen have at least one disabled (bad?) vertex processor too, so just 5 or less of them are active instead of 6 in Ultra models"
