Or is somebody already working on it? This is one of the two hwmon drivers that have not yet been converted (the other one is lm78.) I had been delaying them because they are special (hybrid drivers, supporting both I2C and ISA devices) and also because there are pending patches for these drivers and I was hoping that the pending patches could be merged first (but it didn't happen yet.) If you want to work on either of these drivers, please do. I can do some testing on both. If you have a particular interest in these drivers, maybe we can work together. For a general overview of the conversion of i2c drivers to new-style, please see: http://jdelvare.pck.nerim.net/linux/legacy_i2c_driver.list ** means the patch is already upstream, * means that the patch is available but needs testing and/or review. The driver list might not be totally up-to-date, I didn't check yet if there have been legacy i2c drivers added upstream lately. My initial hope was to have everything converted in 2.6.28, but now I suspect that only hwmon and rtc drivers will be completely converted by then -- Jean Delvare
