Yes. I have an x86 platform which has an lm63 temperature sensor connected to the i801. There are a couple of loose ends that I need to take care of before I can send the DTS. I can send it for reference, but it won't be of much use because other things are still missing from the kernel and I don't know in what timeframe they can be applied. Thierry
