This driver supercedes the NCT6775F and NCT6776F support in the W83627EHF
-driver. It supports NCT6106D, NCT6775F, NCT6776F, NCT6779D, and NCT6791D.
+driver. It supports NCT6106D, NCT6775F, NCT6776F, NCT6779D, NCT6791D, and
+NCT6792D.
-The driver should be in shape for upstream integration, and has been submitted
-to the lm-sensors mailing list for that purpose. Testing and review feedback
-will be required for the driver to be actually integrated. If you use the latest
-version of this driver, and/or if you can provide review feedback, please let
-the author know.
+The driver is also available in the upstream kernel. This version is maintained
+for backward compatibility with older kernels. I am trying to keep it buildable
+for older kernels, but may miss a problem once in a while. If you have a problem
+compiling this driver with any kernel version 2.6.32 or later, please let me
+know.

-----------
This driver implements support for the Nuvoton NCT6106D, NCT6775F, NCT6776F,
-NCT6779D, and NCT6791D super I/O chips. We will refer to them collectively as
-Nuvoton chips.
+NCT6779D, NCT6791D, and NCT6792D super I/O chips. We will refer to them
+collectively as Nuvoton chips.
The chips implement up to 8 temperature sensors depending on the chip type and
configuration. Temperatures used to control fan speed are reported separately.
Temperature at which the matching pwm is enabled.
pwm[1-5]_step_up_time milliseconds [ms] before fan speed is increased
pwm[1-5]_step_down_time milliseconds [ms] before fan speed is decreased
-pwm[1-5]_step_enable Set to 1 to enable fine grain speed control.
- If disabled, pwm values will increase or decrease to
- the values configured in the auto_point_pwm attributes.
- If enabled, pwm values will be interpolated, resulting
- in a more fine-grained fan control, resulting in a more
- fine-grained fan control
