Hi Jean, Sorry i did not notice this mail :( >>> Given that these 3 last chips (W83627HF, W83627EHF and W83627DHG) are >>> Super-I/O chips and are detected again later using a more reliable >>> method, I suggest we drop the legacy detection method for them. I've >>> already done so for the ITE family some weeks ago. Objection anyone? >> No objections here. > > Good. > >>> This confirms my earlier guess. Good. As I said before, we don't have >>> support right now, but support could be added to the w83627ehf driver >>> with relatively little effort. You'll have to wait until this happens. >> From the Winbond website >> (http://www.winbond-usa.com/mambo/content/view/143/273/) there is one >> less Vin, and some VID I/O. > > Here are my own comparison notes of some says ago: > > * 8-bit VID instead of 6-bit > * No VIN4 (I don't know which one this is in the driver) > * Additional critical limit for the 3 temperature sensors - part of the > automatic fan speed regulation interface > > This was only after a quick glance, I could have overlooked something, > but all in all adding support for that chip should be pretty > straightforward. > >> The datasheet is available by request >> only.
