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?

I am not from Intel, but the article at http://softwarecommunity.intel.com/ISN/Community/en-us/blogs/manageability_software_development/archive/2007/01/24/30229661.aspx says "Please note that currently the HECI driver is available for windows OS and it will be made available on Linux OS in a future release." Nice that it will be made available on Linux in the future, but I feel somewhat let down here, Intel. Your support for your wireless and graphics chips on Linux is what has made you a top contender for my hardware purchases. -Joseph -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]/// Graduate Student in Physics, Freelance Free Software Hacker Ordinaire. ///260 IATL / The University of Iowa / Iowa City, IA 52242/// - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
Intel chooses not to support its HECI/QPS Chip in Linux?
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 bought an Intel board, thinking everything would be supported, because it is an Intel board. The board is an Intel DG965WHMKR. Is Intel changing its values around open source? Digging around, one will read something regarding Intel loads a special piece of code in the firmware of the chip. Seems anti-open-source to me. I believe a lot of people are interested in viewing their temperature of their chipsets, cpu, etc within Linux, currently this is not possible. What if any other types of motherboards are really fully supported in Linux these days? Suffice to say, I am a bit surprised Intel has been quietly ignoring this for quite some time now. Some of the discussion that has been going on regarding this issue: http://softwareforums.intel.com/ISN/Community/en-US/forums/thread/30225715.aspx "Hello, Intel(r) Quiet System Technology (QST) support is provided by the Firmware running the Management Engine. Linux support, however, is not currently planned for QST and so there is no HECI driver for Linux. G. Holmes" http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2134 http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2153 Can anyone provide any update?
