 At least the following SMBus adapters are supported:
   Acer Labs M1541 and M1543C (used in the Aladdin IV, V and Pro 2 chipsets)
+  AMD 756
   Apple Hydra (used on some PPC machines)
   Intel ICH (used in the Intel 810 and 810E chipsets)

 If you want to offer more substantial help, this is very welcome too, of
 course.

+Don't ask us whether we support a particular mainboard; we do not know.
+We *do* know what hardware we support, but usually, it is easier to
+install everything and run sensors-detect. It will tell you what hardware
+you have (and incidentally, what corresponding drivers are needed). You
+could also take a look at http://members.brabant.chello.nl/~a.vankaam/mbm
+(this lists chips found on many mainboard, but regrettable, not the adapters
+on them) or http://web01.fureai.or.jp/~hirobo/project/reserch_project.html
+(yes, it is japanese; you want the ninth column, and it again lists only
+chips, not adapters).
