I just don't want to dive into this for something that "simple". Remember, the eeprom module, although widely used, is one of our least interesting drivers. And LM Sensors is useless on Sony Vaio's anyway (no sensor chips). So let's play it safe, but without extra technologies involved. Do not export the eeproms detected as Vaio's ones unless forced too. I'll implement that this afternoon, test it on my laptop and commit. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
