After commenting out code in the i2c-piix4 code to stop it from loading the driver I noticed the following odd results: It appears the IBM has a lm80 chip. The 'odd' thing is it reports i2c devices? There are two fans on this board. the PSU fan and a special case/cpu fan which only turns on when the CPU is getting hot it is usually off if the machine is idle. sensors lm80-i2c-0-28 Adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at fe00 Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter +5V: +4.00 V (min = +4.74 V, max = +4.74 V) ALARM VTT: +1.72 V (min = +1.90 V, max = +2.10 V) ALARM +3.3V: +3.37 V (min = +3.13 V, max = +3.46 V) +Vcore: +2.92 V (min = +1.80 V, max = +1.99 V) ALARM +12V: +11.30 V (min = +11.37 V, max = +12.57 V) ALARM -12V: -7.35 V (min = -12.62 V, max = -11.41 V) ALARM -5V: -2.67 V (min = -5.25 V, max = -4.77 V) ALARM fan1: 3154 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) ALARM fan2: 0 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) ALARM temp: +33.50 ?C (hot:limit = +6?C, hysteresis = +5?C) ALARM (os: limit = +6?C, hysteresis = +5?C) ALARM lm80-i2c-0-2e Adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at fe00 Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter +5V: +5.50 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) ALARM VTT: +0.31 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +2.02 V) ALARM +3.3V: +3.46 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) ALARM +Vcore: +0.77 V (min = +0.46 V, max = +3.08 V) ALARM +12V: +7.14 V (min = +3.28 V, max = +12.57 V) ALARM -12V: -12.65 V (min = -12.65 V, max = -18.47 V) -5V: -4.75 V (min = -5.27 V, max = -4.75 V) fan1: 168750 RPM (min = 1670 RPM, div = 4) ALARM fan2: 3325 RPM (min = -1 RPM, div = 2) temp: -39.12 ?C (hot:limit = +2?C, hysteresis = -53?C) ALARM (os: limit = +0?C, hysteresis = +0?C) ALARM alarms: Board temperature input (LM75) ALARM On Sunday 09 February 2003 10:42 am, Shawn Starr wrote: > -----Original Message----- > From: Jean Delvare <khali at linux-fr.org> > Date: Sat, 8 Feb 2003 21:30:38 > To:Shawn Starr <shawn.starr at datawire.net> > Cc:lm78 at Stimpy.netroedge.com > Subject: Re: False IBM Laptop detection - PIIX4 (440BX) - IBM 300PL > 6892-N2U Tower desktop - lm_sensors 2.7.0 /w 2.4.20 > > > I have an IBM 300PL 6892-N2U just picked it up yesterday but > > lm_sensors 2.7.0 refuses to load anything! > > > > I am using a Tower desktop not a laptop unless this is a defunked > > bios? > > > > Let me know what info you need from me. > > Thanks for the report.
