But asus_atk0110 is far less useful than the it87 variant. Yes atk0110 shows correct labels for various sensors, but for one there's no way to control fan speeds using it, at least not currently, -- something which is done by it87 easily. Well, one more difference is that atk0110 also shows vcore, which at least looks real instead of fake 1.55V as shown by it87. But anyway, loading the driver just to get correct labels and vcore seems a bit overkill... /mjt -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
