thanks for the mail, sorry for the delay in response. Will your driver be released under the GPL? Would you please release the 792 datasheet to us so we may assist you? Will your driver be for 2.4 or 2.6 kernels? If the 792 is a Super I/O chip, I strongly recommend that you start from our w83627hf.c driver rather than the w83781d.c driver. If it is i2c/isa, the w83781d.c driver is the best place to start. We will be happy to help you with any questions, please send them to the mailing list. I will update the "New Drivers" page. mds Huang0 at Winbond.com.tw wrote: > --> > > Hi LM sensors group > > > > Did you receive the following mail? which was sent on Oct.29, 2004, > > I have not received any response from you, and wonder whether you get it. > > > > I??m developing the Linux driver of Winbond W83792D/AD Hardware Monitor > chip now, > > using lm_sensors-2.8.8 and i2c-2.8.8.
