ASM58 (Asus Mozart-2) Linux 3.0 kernel patch

Hi everyone, long time since last post...

Well I have been doing some autumn cleaning and discovered my home server did not have sensors installed. Upon discovering it has a barely supported chipset, that does get detected by the sensors-detect script, but there is actually no driver included.


The sensor is found on the following Asus mainboards:

• P4B533-VM
• P4S333 (in conjunction with another asus chip?)
• P4S333-VM
• Terminator P4

I have googled a bit and (All raise hands and give praise to the GNU) discovered that somenoe - namely Michael Loßin has once upon a time written the driver code for linux kernel 2.6.x tree. And he deserves the gratitude for the work he put in. I have only modified his code, so that it compiles cleanely and works on the Linux kernel 3.0 tree.

The patch is available here.

Works like a charm with lm_sensors - here is the output:
