Hi Jean, >OK, that explains it. The driver was looking for the base I/O addresses >at (non-standard registers) 0x50 and 0x54. You have them at (standard >registers) 0x20 and 0x24. >I did some search and it seems that previous nforce4 devices had each >address listed twice (once in the non-standard register and once in the >standard register). Original nforce2 devices had only the non-standard >ones though, which explains why the driver was using them. >So my guess is that Nvidia tried to move to the standard register, >which isn't a bad thing, and kept the old ones around for some times >for compatibility purposes (not a bad idea either.) And your device is >the first one without that compatibility measure, so the driver broke. ---clipped message and patch >Mark (McKnight), can you please try it too? It should work for you too. I tried it on Ubuntu 2.6.15 and it works as expected. I'm now displaying cpu temp and fan speed in the gnome panel. >Other users of i2c-nforce2 are invited to test that patch too, just to >make sure I did not accidentally break the older chips. >Thanks, -- >Jean Delvare I'd also like to thank lm-sensor developers past and present for sensors-detect. I found it a very useful utility. Mark Mcknight --------------------------------- 7 bucks a month. This is Huge Yahoo!
