Hi Jean, Thank you for your response. I named main driver file as "wb83795.c" just for fit the Makefile. Please change its name to fit other drivers in kernel. The attach file is the i2cdump result. In fact I have made some subversions for kernel 2.6.5 (Suse 9), kernel 2.6.9 (RHEL 4), kernel 2.6.21 and kernel 2.6.27. You can contact with me if you need them.

Thanks a lot for contributing code for your hardware, this is very appreciated. > Driver files list: > The attach file "wb83795.c" is the main driver file. This driver passed test on kernel 2.6.28.7. Shouldn't this rather be w83795.c? This would be consistent with the other driver names and with your sensors-detect patch. > The attach file "Makefile" is used for compile the driver. > > Patch files for lm-sensors 3.0.3: > > The attach file "795_sensor3.conf" is the 795 related lines for sensor3.conf.

I have adjusted this patch so that it applies on top of 3.1.0 (there have been a lot of changes in sensors-detect between 3.0.3 and 3.1.0.) Can you please send me a dump of your W83795 chip so that I can test the code before I commit it? You can obtain such a dump using the i2c-dev kernel driver and "i2cdump" from the i2c-tools package: # modprobe i2c-dev # i2cdump 0 0x2d b Replace 0 with the actual I2C bus number your chip sits on and 0x2d with the actual I2C address of the chip. Remember to first unload the w83795 driver if it is loaded. > Until now, it seems there is not a motherboard based on W83795G/ADG in the market, and I am sure not the 795 SPEC could be share to you or not. > > Please contact me if you need any help, want to know any information or have some other questions. Unfortunately I will not have the time to do more. Maybe later when there are actual motherboards with this chip and users start asking for support... -- Jean Delvare =========================================================================================== The privileged confidential information contained in this email is intended for use only by the addressees as indicated by the original sender of this email.
