This will make our job a bit harder, since you won't be able to upgrade i2c and lm_sensors to CVS (and lm_sensors CVS won't work with i2c 2.7.0). > > You can also check from which package do i2cdump and i2cdetect come > > from, providing they're installed on your system. > > > I do have i2cdump, i2cdetect, and i2cset. > package , they all come form lm_sensors Good news. At least we have some tools to work with. The first thing I'd like you to try is an updated version of sensors-detect. You can grab it from there: http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/prog/detect/sensors-detect If possible, i'd be better if you could perform a cold reboot prior to running the script. I'd like to make sure your hardware (I2C bus for that matter) is peaceful and no nasty module is lurking. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
