Hi Peter, others
Over the past few moons I've written a fcu driver (with Nathans help)
which should allow to control the fans in the older PowerMac7.2.
I'll post it here to get some feedback from you and others.
To make it work you need to place it in sys/powerpc/powermac
In the sys/conf/files.powerpc(64) you need to add this:
powerpc/powermac/fcu.c optional powermac
I developed the driver on the powermac64 branch. But I expect it to work
also on 32-bit. But...
I have one issue which is not solved yet. To make it read the i2c
devices I had to increase the DELAY in kiic_writereg to 100. This might
be specific to my G5, a dual 1.8GHz machine.
Currently it is one big file with several sub components.
I'd welcome some feedback.
TIA,
Andreas
