I have installed lm-sensors-2.7.0. Context : - slackware-8.1 - kernel 2.4.20 The driver loaded is w83781d but with the command sensors the result is not correct : - the value pour -5V is out of limits - the fan speeds are 0 I have found in the moterboard (Abit BE6) documentation, the chip is a W83977EF and dmidecode gives a similar information : # dmidecode 1.8 ...
