730 chipset
* Possible other SiS chipsets ?

Module Parameters
-----------------
force = [1|0] Forcibly enable the SIS630. DANGEROUS!
This can be interesting for chipsets not named
above to check if it works for you chipset, but DANGEROUS!
high_clock = [1|0] Forcibly set Host Master Clock to 56KHz (default,what your BIOS use).
DANGEROUS! This should be a bit faster, but freeze some systems (i.e.
my Laptop).
Description
-----------
This SMBus only driver is known to work on motherboards with the above named
chipsets.
If you see something like this:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 630 Host (rev 31)
00:01.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 85C503/5513
or like this:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 730 Host (rev 02)
00:01.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 85C503/5513
in your 'lspci' output , then this driver is for your chipset.
Note: kernel versions later than 2.4.18 not tested.
If anyone owns a board with those chips AND is willing to risk crashing &
burning an otherwise well-behaved kernel in the name of progress... please
contact me at <amalysh@web.de> or via the project's mailing list:
<sensors@stimpy.netroedge.com>. Please send bug reports and/or success
stories as well.
Thank Yous

To anyone else which I forgot here ;), thanks!
