Как включить поддержку SMBus LPC, и MEI Controller.

Загрузил LiveCD Gentoo... Без графического окружения!!!!

Картина абсолютно одинаковая!

А вот как поддерживаются эти устройства, на этой же машине, в Linux Mint:

Видно что SMBus Controller также не поддерживается, но зато MEI Controller и LPC Controller вполне себе работают....

Один момент. Мне кажется важный. Linux Mint с графическим окружением. Как вы видите, видео карта с драйвером....
Может от этого зависит? Но все равно SMBus Controller не поддерживается...

В том вся и проблема, что не понятно где эти драйвера брать... Толи в ядре настройки крутить... толи как софт поставить... )))
Если в ядре, то где крутить? Если софт, то откуда, какой ставить???

У Вас даже SMBus Controller встал... У меня его и Мint не видит...
странно, и не понятно все... ))))
