Hi: Sorry about the previous double email/post; SBC/AT&T-yahoo went wacko and sent instead of saving draft. ... I am posting again to add that this GBT mobo is also used in (at least) the Fujitsu-Siemans Celsius V workstation which is, currently, their high-end AMD workstation(i.e., more that I can afford...). I mention that because the SMSC EMC6W201 has features that are in other chips from F-S, namely the Scylla and Hermes chips which are listed in sensors.conf as chip "fscscy-*" and chip "fscher-*", respectively. The Scylla has dual CPU ability and the Hermes has PWM control. The 6w201 does both. The Fujitsu-Siemens Scylla chip is really very close to having the same available functions as the EMC6w201 chip but it has 6 fan monitoring and is lacking the PWM control. It might be that using code from those chips and/or the other SMSC devices that are already in libsensors would make the addition of the SMSC EMC6W201 easier. Yes?/no? ... I posted about the 6w201 back in February. ... I'll summarize the "features" here since I did not do that before. The device is a monitoring and control chip with + 5 temperatures via diodes plus 1 "internal Ambient" temperature; + 3 PWM controls for fans which can control as many as 5 fans by connecting 2 PWM fans on each of two of the PWM connectors; Monitors RPM on 5 fans; + 6 voltages (but the 12VDC is not one of them and 2 of them are not needed). It, of course, does a lot of "stuff" but the above are the basics. The blip about it is here: http://www.smsc.com/main/catalog/emc6w201.html Any assistance is appreciated as I am at a standstill at this point and do not know what to do next to get the implementation done. Thanks, :) Ric ... Success " He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of Earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory a benediction.
