Most likely SMBus interrupts do not work properly on this machine. Since then a number of improvements have been committed to the i2c-i801 driver to detect and workaround corner cases in this area. If you still have this machine, you may want to try to upgrade to kernel v3.19 or later and see if it helps. Alternatively the stand-alone driver at http://jdelvare.nerim.net/devel/lm-sensors/drivers/i2c-i801/ can be built for your current kernel. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
