OK, so it's a different board, which means that at least two boards have the W83627EHF chip. And the driver would need to be written for 2.6 primarily. > I started looking to run i2cdump, but apparently there are no busses > found in my system, or at least there are no /dev/i2c* devices. You'd have to load some bus driver, most probably i2c-i801. The "sensors-detect" script should tell. > I tried isadump, but I'm not sure what you are expecting the output to > look like, or if the output I'm getting is valid data. Hexadecimal numbers ;) But maybe the address is different. sensors-detect will tell too. > I'd be happy to test any new versions you have, just let me know the > best way to retrieve them, and how you would like me to run them, and > what output or results you would like me to report back to you. I've update the sensors-detect script so that it detects the W83627EHF in the three possible ways: as an I2C client, as an ISA chip and as a Super-I/O chip. Please give it a try: http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/%7Elm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/prog/detect/sensors-detect Download, chmod +x sensors-detect, ./sensors-detect, and send us the full output. David Madsen, please do too if possible! The more feedback, the better. With the output of sensors-detect I'll tell you how to dump the chip contents. Thanks! -- Jean Delvare
