No temperature/fan values with 83627THF chip

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

 



Hi Jon, Thomas, Rudolf, Jean

This is Chunhao.

The attachment is the w83792d driver for linux-2.6, please test it for me
if you have time.

There are some small bugs in it as following:
(1) We misunderstand the meaning of temperature low limit, this bug also
exists in the 792 driver for linux-2.4 and our 792 Windows driver.
(2) I have not implemented the 0.5 degree to temperature2 and temperature3,
while the driver for linux-2.4 implemented this.
(3) The 792 driver for linux-2.4 can adjust the fan divisor automatically,
while I have not implemented it in this 2.6 one.

These bugs are kept in my own bug-list, I will fix them when I'm a little free,
because I'm very busy in another my project, I can NOT fix them now.
If you find any other bugs, please don't hesitate to tell us. You may also
help us to fix them if you have time, but please tell us before your fix :-)

I'm sorry that I should have sent the 792 driver for linux-2.6 to you
earlier.


Thanks
