Kernel driver `i2c-sis5595.o'
Status: Untested Alpha - may not work at all
Supported adapters:
* Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. SiS5595 Southbridge
Datasheet: Publicly available at the Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. site.
Author: Frodo Looijaard <frodol@dds.nl> and
Mark D. Studebaker <mdsxyz123@yahoo.com>
Module Parameters
-----------------
force_addr=0xaddr Set the I/O base address. Useful for boards
that don't set the address in the BIOS. Does not do a
PCI force; the device must still be present in lspci.
Don't use this unless the driver complains that the
base address is not set.
Example: 'modprobe i2c-sis5595 force_addr=0x290'
Description
-----------
i2c-sis5595 is a true SMBus host driver for motherboards with the
SiS5595 southbridges.
WARNING: If you are trying to access the integrated sensors on the
SiS5595 chip, you want the sis5595.o driver for those, not this driver.
This driver is a BUS driver, not a CHIP driver.
A BUS driver is used by other CHIP drivers to access chips on the bus.
To install this driver, simply do
# modprobe i2c-sis5595
This driver is ALPHA!!!
