Guenter,
I downloaded and installed the driver last night. The file I picked up
was groeck-w83627ehf-dof3594.tar.gz. It appeared to build and install
alright. I am using Kernel 3.0.0-16-generic on a x64 Ubuntu 11.10
distribution.
After running make-install, I ran sensors-detect again and I still got
this message:
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `adt7475':
* Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 2 at 1:00.0'
Busdriver `nvidia', I2C address 0x2e
Chip `Analog Devices ADT7473' (confidence: 5)
Driver `to-be-written':
* ISA bus, address 0x290
Chip `Nuvoton W83677HG-I (NCT6771F/NCT6772F/NCT6775F) Super IO
Sensors' (confidence: 9)
Note: there is no driver for Nuvoton W83677HG-I
(NCT6771F/NCT6772F/NCT6775F) Super IO Sensors yet.
Check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for updates.
To load everything that is needed, add this to /etc/modules:
#----cut here----
# Chip drivers

If you have some drivers built into your kernel, the list above will
contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones!
I am using an older version of sensors-detect. I will update that as
well, and let you know what happens. Any other thoughts on what I should do?

I have an ASRock board that uses a newer Nuvoton W83677HG-I Super I/O
chip. I would like to help develop (or get help developing) a set of
drivers for this chip. It is similar to previous versions of Nuvoton
chips like the W83627 series. I found the sensor drivers from Guenter
Roeck (Thank You) that are intended for the W83627 series. I was hoping
to build on these, but I don't know enough about how kernel modules work
to proceed.
The manufacturer was helpful in providing documentation for this chip,
the W83627UHG, and the W83627DHG-P. Comparing the devices, I noticed
that many of the data formats and I/O methods are the same, So I hope
that my new chip can be added in fairly easily.
W83677HG-I and NCT6775F are the same. Did you try the existing driver ?
Thanks,
Guenter
