Hi Patrick, Jae, Virgil,
I am done adding support for the IT8721F/IT8758E to the it87 Linux
driver. You can download a stand-alone version of the driver at:
http://khali.linux-fr.org/devel/misc/it87/
Please test and report :) Beware the code is untested so far, as I
don't have this chip at hand.
Patrick, note that with an Asus board, it is entirely possible that the
it87 driver can't be loaded due to ACPI requesting the I/O ports
(you'll get a warning in the kernel log in that case) and you have to
use the asus_atk0110 driver instead.

Yes, we already do. > If you can it would probably be a solution to recommend using this module for asus-owners in general. The problem is that not all Asus board use that driver. Old Asus boards don't have the ATK0110 virtual drivers, some more recent boards do have it but it isn't usable, and server boards need native drivers instead of ACPI. > As it seems lm-sensors is capable of much more than the scan makes you think in the first place when it announces it has no driver for the sensor found :) We have a few tickets opened for this: http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2374 http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2373 But this isn't trivial, it will take some time and thinking to get it done properly. Note that the asus_atk0110 driver normally loads automatically on systems which need it, which mitigates the issue. > Thanks for your efforts, greatly appreciate the fast reaction :) You're welcome. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

This issue came up before, the main problem is that to reliably identify ATK0110 you need an ACPI disassembler in user space (i.e. iasl). OTHO atk0110 driver is loaded automagically and does not need any configuration... so I guess that the problem with sensors-detect is only for users that build a custom kernel; in this case a suggestion based on DMI entries may be enough.
