w83627ehf.ko driver for SLES11 SP3 x86_64

I installed SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 for AMD64 & Intel 64 and try to get sensors working.
On my motherboard (Intel® Server Board S1200BTSR) sensors-detect found Winbond W83627DHG-P chip and I need to install w83627ehf.ko driver.
But I see that the driver is only in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 for x86 kernel-default distribution.
Where can i find x86_64 version of this driver?

I’ll try to find someone that can tell me if it’s just an omission or if there are technical reasons for this…

Hi andy_s,

my sources suggest that this is an error, so you should open a service request with SUSE.

But I ‘see’
(https://www.suse.com/LinuxPackages/packageRouter.jsp?product=server&version=11&service_pack=sp3&architecture=i386&package_name=kernel-default)
that the driver is only in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 for x86
kernel-default distribution.

According to recently published TID 7015650[1] this was an oversight
which is being rectified.

HTH.
