the to-be-written part is for the i2c bus driver, which you don't need for the it87 isa support. Did sensors-detect find the it87? What chip contains the hardware monitor? I looked at some SIS730 info on the web and couldn't find any reference to hardware monitor functions. sig wrote: > > I have an SiS730 sensor chip that I was able to get working using > lm_sensors-2.6.4, and I thought you guys might be interested in the > details.
