Re: looking for help with W83795ADG

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I suggest you:


mkdir ~/piix4-n36l
cp [yourlinuxtree]/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-piix4.c
~/piix4-n36l/
cp ~/Downloads/Makefile ~/piix4-n36l/
cd  ~/piix4-n36l/

patch -p1 < proliant-microserver-n36l.diff
make
you will have your new module inside ~/piix4-n36l/

rmmod i2c-piix4
insmod ./i2c-piix4.ko
insmod ./i2c-piix4-n36l.ko

insmod w83795 (you should already build separately)

sensors

regards Eddi.

I hope an answer from Jean... I'd like if this patch may be inserted
in mainstream linux with the necessary adjustment..
