thanks for the info about the datasheet requiring an NDA. Unfortunately this means things will be difficult. But it may be sufficient just to get KCS over I2C working to it. The chip uses KCS over I2C. Corey, can we do that with the IPMI KCS driver? Do we need to write code to register with the KCS module to route KCS messages to a particlar address on a particular i2c bus? How would we do that - or does IPMI already have that capability? Once that is done, then the standard modules bmcsensors -> i2c-ipmi -> ipmi-msghdlr -> ipmi_kcs_sm should work. right Corey? mds Ilia Stolov wrote: > Mark Studebaker <mds4 <at> verizon.net> writes: > > >>ask National Semiconductor. >> >>Chan Min Wai (System Administrator) wrote: >> >>>Hello all, >>> >>>I'm on Ticket #1853 >>> >>>Is there anyway I can help to obtain a full data sheet? >>>What kind of full data sheet do you need? >>> >>>What should be included? >>> >>>I would like to help in this, I've contact Intel Support and I think >>>they will help in somewhere.
