  19. Description
  20. -----------
  21. i2c-nforce2 is a driver for the SMBuses included in the nVidia nForce2 MCP.
  22. If your 'lspci -v' listing shows something like the following,
  23. 00:01.1 SMBus: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0064 (rev a2)
  24. Subsystem: Asustek Computer, Inc.: Unknown device 0c11
  25. Flags: 66Mhz, fast devsel, IRQ 5
  26. I/O ports at c000 [size=32]
  27. Capabilities: <available only to root>
  28. then this driver should support the SMBuses of your motherboard.
  29. Notes
  30. -----
  31. The SMBus adapter in the nForce2 chipset seems to be very similar to the
  32. SMBus 2.0 adapter in the AMD-8111 south bridge. However, I could only get
  33. the driver to work with direct I/O access, which is different to the EC
  34. interface of the AMD-8111. Tested on Asus A7N8X. The ACPI DSDT table of the
  35. Asus A7N8X lists two SMBuses, both of which are supported by this driver.
