Well since I asked about a problem now to occur with a different
driver all together:

From OP:
  But any attempt to load it meets with this result (wrapped for mail):
  modprobe w83627hf
    FATAL: Error inserting w83627hf 
    (/lib/modules/2.6.33-gentoo/kernel/drivers/hwmon/w83627hf.ko):
    Device or resource busy

Then the fact that you were able to get yours to work is not really relevant
to the question.

Thanks for the input... but may not be very useful here.

I'm hoping someone else has hit the problem I posted about and has
worked out some way to get it to work.
