A question when test W83792D driver on another motherboard

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

 



Hi Jean and Rudolf

The following message is from one of my colleague, for your reference.

***********************
As the ASUS RD said, writing this port will make the system switch to the i2c bus where our 792 chip resides.

According to his information, all ASUS server motherboard use this step to do the bus switching job.

Therefore, we might be able to apply the same codes on every server boards made by ASUS.

However, we should confirm the way of judging whether a motherboard adopt this step to switch buses.

JS and YS are going to contact ASUS for more information. We will send more detail after it is done.
*************************


Best Regards
Chunhao
