| 18 | Description |
| 19 | ----------- |
| 20 | |
| 21 | i2c-nforce2 is a driver for the SMBuses included in the nVidia nForce2 MCP. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | If your 'lspci -v' listing shows something like the following, |
| 24 | |
| 25 | 00:01.1 SMBus: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0064 (rev a2) |
| 26 | Subsystem: Asustek Computer, Inc.: Unknown device 0c11 |
| 27 | Flags: 66Mhz, fast devsel, IRQ 5 |
| 28 | I/O ports at c000 [size=32] |
| 29 | Capabilities: <available only to root> |
| 30 | |
| 31 | then this driver should support the SMBuses of your motherboard. |

| 34 | Notes |
| 35 | ----- |
| 36 | |
| 37 | The SMBus adapter in the nForce2 chipset seems to be very similar to the |
| 38 | SMBus 2.0 adapter in the AMD-8111 southbridge. However, I could only get |
| 39 | the driver to work with direct I/O access, which is different to the EC |
| 40 | interface of the AMD-8111. Tested on Asus A7N8X. The ACPI DSDT table of the |
| 41 | Asus A7N8X lists two SMBuses, both of which are supported by this driver. |
