Bug#699140: Linux as of 3.8-rc5 doesn't support NCT6779D hw sensor
Package: src:linux-2.6
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch
Some newer desktop motherboards, including my ASUS P8Z77-V LE and at least some
other ASUS Z77-based ones, contain a NCT6779D sensor which isn't supported by
the w83627ehf driver or any other kernel driver.
There is a working driver at https://github.com/groeck/nct6775 (last time
submitted for reviewing at http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-
sensors/2012-December/037817.html ). It "will replace the w83627ehf driver for
NCT6775F and NCT6776F, and provides support for NCT6779D".
Here is its output on my system:
