Hi Patrick, Jean, MDS, Rudolf Good News: I solved the problem we meet on ALI M1563 chipset just now by modifying the driver i2c-ali1563.c( especially the function ali1563_transaction()): replace the codes: !(data & HST_STS_DONE) ? "Transaction Never Finished " : ""); if (!(data & HST_STS_DONE)) /* Issue 'kill' to host controller */ outb_p(HST_CNTL2_KILL,SMB_HST_CNTL2); else /* Issue timeout to reset all devices on bus */ outb_p(HST_CNTL1_TIMEOUT,SMB_HST_CNTL1); return -1; with: return 0; I attached the driver in this mail, you may just diff it with the original one in linux kernel 2.6.10 to find all the modified codes. Dear Patrick, Would you please modify your driver in a more neat way than mine, so that my W83792D driver can work on it? When you finished, I'd like to test it for you. :-) Maybe the reason that i2c-ali1563.c for linux-2.4(backported by me) can NOT work is same as this problem, I will modify my i2c-ali1563.c for linux-2.4 next week when I'm free, if it can work too, it's too great! :-) Thanks Best Regards Chunhao > -----Original Message----- > From: Jean Delvare [mailto:khali at linux-fr.org] > Sent: 2005??3??11?? 03:41 > To: Patrick Mochel > Cc: PI14 HUANG0; PI10 LHHsu; PI14 DZSHEN; sensors at Stimpy.netroedge.com; PI13 > CFLi > Subject: Re: We will port w83792d.c to linux-2.6 > > Hi Patrick, > > > Note that while not *identical*, the controller shares a lot of > > similarities with the i810 driver. > > I assume i801. > > > In SMB_HST_STS (offset 0), bit 6 is "ISUSE_STS", which reads a 0 the > > first time after the device is reset, then a 1 after that.
