[lm-sensors] ADT7475 lm_sensors / linux driver

[lm-sensors] ADT7475 lm_sensors / linux driver

[Hans de Goede]

Hi,

Short intro: I'm the author of several 2.6 hwmon drivers, and I'm also a 
teacher in computer science at a Dutch University. Coming September I will be 
giving a class in writing Linux device drivers and I want to use some real 
world examples as lab exercises.

This could include letting the students write a driver for the ADT7475, which I 
will then submit to the kernel and maintain, unless the students want to do 
this him / her self.

Which leads me to the question what the status is of your attempts to write a 
driver, I preferably don't want my students to do something that has already be 
done. Also what asus motherboard do you have _exactly_, because if my students 
are going to take a go at this, I will need to buy a motherboard with this chip 
on it for them to develop on.

Thanks & Regards,

Hans

Thanks for the reply, I'll keep this driver on my list of possible lab 
assignments then, do you happen to know if the non SLI versions of the ASUS M2N 
familiy have the same chip?

Thanks & Regards,

Hans
