On the P5A, the W83781D sensor chip is on both the ISA and
SMBus. Therefore the SMBus hangs can generally be avoided
by accessing the W83781D on the ISA bus only.
Hot Plug Modules
----------------
There are EXPERIMENTAL "hotplug" modules which will enable the
m7101 device if it is not enabled on your motherboard.
Use these at your own risk. Read the README file carefully.
m7101 Version 0.1 for 2.2 and early 2.3 kernels:

For 2.2 and early 2.3 kernels you must use version 0.1;
version 0.2 will not work.
Version 0.1 does not use the kernel hotplug facility.

Default I/O addresses are 0xe800 for SMBus and 0xec00 for ACPI.
These can be changed at module insertion.
