Install a driver for sensor chip nct6799

I installed new hardware for a server recently, an Asus b650em motherboard with an amd ryzen 5 9600x CPU. The previous hardware was about 12 years old and no longer could be upgraded.

A web search revealed that the MB uses a Nuvoton nct6799 sensor chip. The repos do not have anything to offer.

How do I add support for that device?

$ sudo modprobe --show nct6799
modprobe: FATAL: Module nct6799 not found in directory /lib/modules/6.4.0-150600.23.100-default
  1. Leap 15.6 is EOL. Update to a supported version.

Other users in other forums reported that this chip can be detected and used with
sudo modprobe nct6775.

Thank you. That is why I upgraded the hardware: to upgrade the OS to 16.
