That's actually the contrary. The w83627hf driver has been added to CVS
to better support the w836x7HF/THF chips, and has not been ported to
Linux 2.6.0 yet, so there's only the w83781d driver there, which happens
to partialy support the w836x7HF/THF family as well.

We'd need to port the w83627hf driver to 2.6.0 but we're all too busy
these days to do so. If you are willing to give it a try, I'll point you
to the docs explaining how to do that.

Thanks for the report anyway.
