Do you have any answers to my previous questions: 1) My driver uses the CPUID instruction to read the performance registers that contain the temp and voltage data. Harald's driver reads MSRs. I don't know if there are any benefits of using one method over the other. 2) If we pick Harald's, it would be nice if his driver can also read and export the CPU core voltage. 3) Quite a few testers of my driver reported 0 temp readings for some C7 CPUs. I was never able to figure out why some CPUs return 0 temp but I'm guessing it depends on the thermal monitor settings. I'd like to understand what is going on and hope Harald can shed some light. ...juerg > - Harald Welte <HaraldWelte at viatech.com> ? ? ? ? ? ?http://linux.via.com.tw/ > ============================================================================ > VIA Free and Open Source Software Liaison >
