Hello there...

I have an application where I require access to an LM78 "health monitor"
chip on a certain type of industrial PC motherboard we use. Unfortunately,
the LM78 is tied to ISA and not I2C/SMBus.

Can anyone recommend a good framework to start writing a driver for this
beastie? I've never actually written a driver before (*gulp*), so please
treat me gently ;-)

In essense, the chip sits at 0x290 with an address line at 0x290+5 and a
data line at 0x290+6. I'd be happy writing a program that merely peeks and
pokes in that address area, rather than a fully-fledged driver...

TIA.
