Dear developers, installation of l2c and lm-sensors does not work properly on my laptop Twinhead GX3 p98 using Linux version 2.4.16 (root at dimbel) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011006 (Debian prerelease)) #5 Fri Dec 21 16:40:48 CET 2001. The problem: The following configuration in /etc/sensors.conf.... chip "max1617-*" set temp_over 60 set temp_low 57 set remote_temp_over 50 set remote_temp_low 47 .... is now and then overwritten (by the bios?), i.e. the temperature limits change. Moreover, the fan cannot really be controled. It starts properly when the temperature is beyond the limit, but it hardly ever stops. Has anybody got an idea?

You need to have installed lm-sensors modules before you can use some functions of this utility. Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c[-/]* files for some things. If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built-in you can safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may seem a bit confusing, but they will still work. IF THIS IS AN IBM THINKPAD, PRESS CTRL-C NOW! IBM Thinkpads have a severely broken i2c/SMBus implementation, just scanning the bus will break your thinkpad forever! We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters. You do not need any special privileges for this. Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-piix4' for device 00:07.3: Intel 82371AB PIIX4 ACPI Probe succesfully concluded. We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Load `i2c-piix4' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): Module loaded succesfully. Do you now want to be prompted for non-detectable adapters? (yes/NO): To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded. If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this. i2c-dev is not loaded. Do you want to load it now? (YES/no): Module loaded succesfully. We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang halfway through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case. If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can specify that address to remain unprobed. That often includes address 0x69 (clock chip).
