I did some more messing around. With the right drivers compiled into the kernel (ichsmb), smbus gets detected. pciconf -lv shows two devices without drivers at this point. One is the wireless card (obviously), and the other is a Lynx Point MEI controller. Some googling around turned up some threads that mentioned a "heci" driver that was under development, but it doesn't seem to be a valid driver option. Does anyone know about the status of this driver (I'm not too concerned about it, just going for completionism)?
