Title:
  nVidia GeForce GT 540M is recognized as 555M

Status in pciutils package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm using Oneiric (Linux 3.0.0.15.17) and have an Acer 5755G laptop with an nVidia GeForce GT 540M graphics card.
  When I run lspci it says 555M instead of 540M.

  sudo lspci -vvv:

  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GF106 [GeForce GT 555M] (rev ff) (prog-if ff)
  	!!! Unknown header type 7f

  I haven't experienced any problems with this but I still think this is
  a problem especially the unknown header type part.

  As I can see other people have this thing too:
