You need to check a fresh CVS out in order to see the changes, because not only the driver, but also the library and userspace tools, have changed. Also note that you'll need i2c-CVS too. > The sensors output was: > Adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0580 > Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter > temp1: +36?C (limit = +100?C) > temp2: +39?C (limit = +100?C) > temp3: +50?C (limit = +100?C) > temp4: +42?C (limit = +100?C) > > In the proc filesystem Ive got: > # ls /proc/sys/dev/sensors/lm83-i2c-0-19/ > alarms tcrit temp1 temp2 temp3 temp4 > > # cat /proc/sys/dev/sensors/lm83-i2c-0-19/tcrit > 120 > # cat /proc/sys/dev/sensors/lm83-i2c-0-19/alarms > 0 So far so good, let's see if the library and userspace tools code is ok too. Oh, another thing. I'm still wondering which elements of your PC the temperatures shown here can correspond to. Temp1 is the LM83's own temperature. We guessed that temp3 had to be the CPU's one. We have temp2 and temp4 left. The datasheets gives a Battery and a LCD as examples, but I don't think you have such devices on your system, do you? So I still believe the North and South bridges are good candidates. Could you remind me what the brand and model of your motherboard are? Maybe I could take a look at the online docs and see if I can learn something there. And anyway, I'd like to mention the motherboard's model in our docs as "known to have a LM83 on it".
