  1. Folks, I don't read this list too often, so it may take me a while to respond, however, I will try to respond to DMs more quickly. However, just to bring you up to date on a few changes and other notes, firstly, with my driver it is better to use it87.ignore_resource_conflict=1 rather than acpi_enforce_resource=lax however, the latest version doesn't even need that for boards I know it is safe for (unfortunately mainly ones I have direct access to currently). More will be added as I get more information from people. we are working on getting all this into the mainline, but it will be a very slow process, probably taking a year or more to see it get out. and finally, I've looked at sensors-detect and realised it only works properly for chips in the mainline module, not mine, as it just lists all the chipsets I have added as "to-be-written". So, how you can help is if you do find a sensor that is not currently supported, let me know and I'll see what can be done. Secondly, if you find a board that still needs it87.ignore_resource_conflict=1 let me know the board time and the sensors that you are seeing and I'll look at adding it . Regards Frank
  2. Folks, I'm currently maintaining the it87 driver that is now being pulled into your systems, and the current version supports the following chipsets: IT8603E, IT8606E, IT8607E, IT8613E, IT8620E, IT8622E, IT8623E, IT8625E, IT8628E, IT8528E, IT8655E, IT8665E, IT8686E, IT8688E, IT8689E, IT8695E, IT8705F, IT8712F, IT8716F, IT8718F, IT8720F, IT8721F, IT8726F, IT8728F, IT8732F, IT8736F, IT8738E, IT8758E, IT8771E, IT8772E, IT8781F, IT8782F, IT8783E/F, IT8786E, IT8790E, IT8792E, Sis950. If you are have any of these chipsets, then you don't need to specify the "force_id" option any further. If you do find you need it please contact me and I'll look at adding any missing chipsets, but it will depend on what details I can find. Unfortunately, for some motherboards, which have multiple chipsets on board, you will need to add the option "ignore_resource_conflict=1" option, in place of the option "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" during the modprobe command, e.g. for similar reasons, although it only affects the it87 module not others. Good luck with the use of this module that various people have been improving over the years.
