Ok, I had a short look on the wonderfull Documentation/i2c/sysfs-interface file. So I will be able to achieve driver port during this week-end, you should receive on Monday or so. Have a nice week-end all ! Just a little question : I am in trouble with the gkrellm plugin of lm_sensors, that is not able to do the lm_sensors complex calculations... Is there any issue to force gkrellm to get the lm_sensors results in place of the too simple linear gkrellm function ? -> -----Message d'origine----- -> De : Jean Delvare [mailto:khali at linux-fr.org] -> Envoy? : jeudi 8 janvier 2004 22:56 -> ? : BARRE Francois -> Cc : sensors at Stimpy.netroedge.com; Alexander Isacson -> Objet : Re: VIA VT1211 Port to 2.6.x in progress -> -> -> > I am currently working on the vt1211 port from lm_sensors-2.8.2 -> > to the brand new kernel 2.6.x.
