Glad to know it works :)

I'll go update our documentation to mention that the W83627EHF and
W83627EHG chips are compatible.

The driver is only half coded. I did fan and temperature monitoring,
because I think that's what most people are interested in. I'd have done
more but had many other things to do and no hardware to test my code so
my progress was too slow.

Well, I guess you can get in touch with Cadu, who is working on
extending this driver. If you can test his code when he is done, I guess
he will appreciate.

If someone is willing to send me a socket 939 motherboard with a
W83627EHF or W83627EHG on board, I will be happy to go on hacking the
driver myself.
