Actually the "K10" name is improper, we should refer to then as "family 10h". > Any help you be great. There has been support for the family 10h floating around, in the form of a patch to the k8temp driver. I've suggested to write a separate driver because there was very little code in common between K8 and fam. 10h. But since then I have heard repeatedly that the fam. 10h sensors were unreliable (pretty much the same as late K8 ones) so it is also possible that we will never bother supporting these CPUs. > (...) > Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. > Just press ENTER to continue: > > Driver `w83793' (should be inserted): > Detects correctly: > * Bus `SMBus nForce2 adapter at 2e00' > Busdriver `i2c-nforce2', I2C address 0x2f (and 0x4b 0x4f) > Chip `Winbond W83793R/G' (confidence: 8) > > Driver `w83627hf' (should be inserted): > Detects correctly: > * ISA bus, address 0x290 > Chip `Winbond W83627HF/F/HG/G Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9) > (...) These two chips should already provide good enough hardware monitoring information. The lack of in-CPU digital sensors shouldn't be too much of a problem. -- Jean Delvare
