33 Module Parameters
34 -----------------
35
36 force_addr=0xaddr       Set the I/O base address. Useful for boards
37                         that don't set the address in the BIOS. Does not do a
38                         PCI force; the device must still be present in lspci.
39                         Don't use this unless the driver complains that the
40                         base address is not set.
41                         Example: 'modprobe i2c-sis5595 force_addr=0x290'

44 Description
45 -----------
46
47 i2c-sis5595 is a true SMBus host driver for motherboards with the
48 SiS5595 southbridges.
49
50 WARNING: If you are trying to access the integrated sensors on the
51 SiS5595 chip, you want the sis5595.o driver for those, not this driver.
52 This driver is a BUS driver, not a CHIP driver.
53 A BUS driver is used by other CHIP drivers to access chips on the bus.
54
55 To install this driver, simply do
56   # modprobe i2c-sis5595
