							|  |  |  | Description | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | ----------- | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | This SMBus only driver is known to work on motherboards with the above | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | named chipset combinations. The driver was developed without benefit of a | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | proper datasheet from SiS. The SMBus registers are assumed compatible with | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | those of the SiS630, although they are located in a completely different | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | place. Thanks to Alexander Malysh <amalysh@web.de> for providing the | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | SiS630 datasheet (and  driver). | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The command "lspci" as root should produce something like these lines: | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]: Unknown device 0645 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 85C503/5513 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]: Unknown device 0016 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | or perhaps this... |

										 |  |  | (drivers/pci/quirks.c) (also if southbridge detection fails) | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | I suspect that this driver could be made to work for the following SiS | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | chipsets as well: 635, and 635T. If anyone owns a board with those chips | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | AND is willing to risk crashing & burning an otherwise well-behaved kernel | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | in the name of progress... please contact me at <mhoffman@lightlink.com> or |

							|  |  |  | TO DOs | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | ------ | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | * The driver does not support SMBus block reads/writes; I may add them if a | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | scenario is found where they're needed. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |
