Hello. Working with your documentation and information from Tyan, I have put
together a pretty good setup for a Tyan S2468 dual-Athlon motherboard. I
didn't see any complete examples on your website, so I'll send you this. Feel
free to post this to your mailing list or to your support database if you
think it would be helpful.
TYAN Thunder K7X S2468GN lm_sensors setup (note that this setup may apply at
least partially to the S2462, S2469, and other similar motherboards).
Linux kernel 2.4.19
lm_sensors version 2.6.5
Lm_sensors was compiled and installed with defaults.
The S2468 has two Winbond monitoring chips, a W83627HF and a W83782D. As with
other recent Tyan motherboards, it is necessary to move one of the two chips
to another address. To do this, place the following lines in
your /etc/modules.conf:
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
options w83781d init=1 force_subclients=0,0x2c,0x4a,0x4b
On startup, use the following to load the required I2C modules and load the
lm_sensors configuration file.
#lm_sensors stuff
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-amd756
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe w83781d
/usr/local/bin/sensors -s
The following configuration file was created based on experimentation and
information from Tyan. It is highly customized to the S2468 motherboard. The
voltages and fans match the Tyan documentation.

# Same as above for w83781d except that in5 and in6 are computed differently.
# Rather than an internal inverting op amp, the 82d/83s use standard positive
# inputs and the negative voltages are level shifted by a 3.6V reference.
# The math is convoluted, so we hope that your motherboard
# uses the recommended resistor values.

This configuration file produces the following sample output. Note that I
don't have my chassis fans hooked to the fan connectors on the motherboard.

Hopefully this helps other people to get this motherboard going. It's a great
motherboard with very good monitoring options.
