Any message in the kernel logs when you modprobe w83627hf? Does the modprobe itself fail or succeed?

What kernel is your gentoo system running? > What can I do to find the solution? Please compare /proc/ioports between a system where the w83627hf driver works for you and a system where it doesn't.
