Winbond 792 source codes for lm_sensor

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear Jean

Another good news is that, after a discussion with my managers,
they agree that we commit the 792 driver for linux-2.4 as soon
as possible.

So I will commit it into lm_sensors CVS after my final test next
week. But I still have NOT the CVS account. I applied for it
one month ago, but have not received any response yet. Would you
please check it for me? Please refer to the mail sent by me on
2005-01-28.


Thanks
Best Regards
Chunhao
