I want to help

Hi, I'm looking to help the ALSA project.  I have six years' experience 
developing audio device drivers for DOS, OS/2, and Windows, so I want to 
create a new audio driver for ALSA.  Is there any particular piece of 
hardware that needs to be supported that no one is working on?

USB.

Search the archives of the list first. There are at least two ways to
do it. The archives contain several discussions on the topic.

Hello,

I got SiS 745, chipset and I want you to help you developing the SMBUS 
(I2C) driver for it.

I can C, assembly and I'm ready to test it on my hardware.

Have a look at kernel/busses/i2c-sis645.c and/or .../i2c-sis630.c.  See
if you can get either of those to work.  Without a datasheet, it might
be impossible.

hello,

Some time ago I made a i2c driver for Sis745.
But there were only some unknown devices there.

My motherboard (ASUS A7S333)  BIOS is hiding SPD ROMS and PLL
(some silly bit somewhere). Someone at linuxbios.org project
has similar problem. (wrote email to that person but no answer)

They pointed out that asking person that there is some bit to trigger
it back -> and its done similar with some other ASUS mb

And now what I want to say :)

I have W83L785R on my MB and I'm willing to write a driver.
Is this "job" still free ?

Regards

Rudolf Marek

I think so, according to this page:

http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/newdrivers.html

To get started, use this checklist:

http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/doc/developers/new_drivers

When you're sure you definitely want to write the driver, let
us know and we'll put your name on the status page.

OK, I put your name on the new drivers page.

Looks that way... datasheets are here: 

http://www.winbond.com/e-winbondhtm/partner/b_2_d_4.htm

And I agree with earlier sentiments on the list that no more chip
variants should be added to w83781d.  Rudolf, I suggest w83784.c
because (according to the datasheet) the 785 is a cut down 784;
that might be added later.

Ok that name will be w83784.c 

Unforunatelly I dont have PWM pins connected to fans. (yet haha)
I will implement what I can.
