I seem to recall that someone was doing drivers for
common Super I/O chips. Does anybody have any pointers
to this stuff?

Note that there are definitly problems with this stuff on
some chipsets. Last time I tried it some really bizarre
things started happening to the system clock
(Like jumping back and forth 6 hours every 30 seconds)
Amusing though.

Thanks, but that code only seems to do high-speed serial stuff, and
it doesn't support the IT8703-F chip I wanted to experiment with.
I was eventually (had to use Explorer, yuck) able to download some
specs from ITE's web site.
(I want to hack the ftape driver to use the high-speed "tape"
FDC mode supported by at least some Super I/O chips.)

It might be worth taking a look at lssuperio, the source mentions ITE device
detection.

Thanks -- that was exactly what I was looking for.
