Module w83627hf still not loading (Examined/Solved - lm_sensors 2.8.3 kernel 2.6.1)

Description

I downloaded the latest build. Installed with 'make user' and 'make

user_install'. Running sensors-detect gives me:

#----cut here----

# I2C module options

alias char-major-89 i2c-dev

#----cut here----

To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:

#----cut here----

# I2C adapter drivers

modprobe i2c-viapro

modprobe i2c-isa

# I2C chip drivers

modprobe eeprom

modprobe w83627hf

# sleep 2 # optional

/usr/local/bin/sensors -s # recommended

Looks fine, only loading the w83627hf module is not possible:

modprobe w83627hf:

FATAL: Module w83627hf not found.

Eeprom does work:

root@slack:~# sensors

eeprom-i2c-0-52

Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 0400

Algorithm: Unavailable from sysfs

Memory type: DDR SDRAM DIMM

Memory size (MB): 512

eeprom-i2c-0-50

Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 0400

Algorithm: Unavailable from sysfs

Memory type: DDR SDRAM DIMM

Memory size (MB): 512

How to get the w83627hf module to load on 2.6.1 (I've seen a lot of questions

about this using google but no clues how to solve it)? I'm on slack current and

would really like to get this working.

Regards

--- the w83627hf driver has not yet been ported to 2.6, sorry.

You may wish to try the w83781d driver.
