Note that I wouldn't be surprised if most IT8702F chips were not wired for monitoring. These chips are rare and only include fan speed sensors, no voltage sensors nor thermal sensors as other ITE Super-I/O chips do. Does the BIOS report any fan speed? You may provide a dump of the hardware monitoring I/O area of your chip and I'll tell you whether it appears to be actually monitoring fans. This will prevent you from waiting for a driver that you don't actually need. It's relatively easy. Take the address sensors-detect reported the chip was at. Typically it's 0x290. Then call isadump on this address with offsets 5 and 6, typically: isadump 0x295 0x296 >From the output I can tell you whether fans are monitored or not. BTW, if someone wants to write this missing driver, that should be an easy one. I would do it myself if I had the time (or if someone pays me to do the work.) -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
