  17. Datasheet: not publicly available, but seems to be similar to the
  18. AMD-8111 SMBus 2.0 adapter.

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