Hi,

Anyone from Intel that reads LKML, could you provide an update as to what
is happening with support for your HECI Controller/QPS chip, which is used
on 965 (and possibly other?) chipsets.

I asked the right folks and the word I got was "Soon". The code we have
needs some major cleanups before it's suitable for lkml posting... but
it'll be there soon. We're working on the cleanups full time.... We'll
send an update when we're further along


Very good news, thanks for the update!

Justin.


It has been > 1 month since this last e-mail, I was wondering if anyone in the community [or Intel] could provide an update? I spoke with one of the lmsensors the other day and he stated that there may be a plan to incorporate the CPU temperature soon, depending on what Intel does/what they provide.

Are we any closer to getting full HECI support in the kernel today than last month?

Justin.
