need help with kern/42758 - correctly initialize W83627HF hwmon

2010-02-07 Thread Michael Stapelberg
Hi, Yesterday I debugged why the temperature values seen in envstat on my mainboard looked very odd (70 degC while the bios hardware monitor shows 40 degC). As I described in the bugreport, it is a missing initialization. I also attached a patch to the bugreport, which fixes the problem to me. Ho
