Hi, I've installed lm_sensors and i2c on my Via Epia ME6000 with Red Hat 9. When i run sensors-detect it ends with a segmentation fault after which only a reboot helps to kill the processes Below i've posted what appears on the console, dmseg and lsmod. Hope you can help. Thanks. ------------- on console ------ BIOS vendor (ACPI): VT9174 System vendor (DMI): VIA Technologies, Inc. BIOS version (DMI): 6.00 PG We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters. You do not need any special privileges for this. Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-viapro' for device 00:11.0: VIA Technologies VT8233A/8235 South Bridge Probe succesfully concluded. We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Load `i2c-viapro' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): Module loaded succesfully. Do you now want to be prompted for non-detectable adapters? (yes/NO): To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded. If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this. i2c-dev is not loaded. Do you want to load it now? (YES/no): Module loaded succesfully. We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang halfway through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case. If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can specify that address to remain unprobed. That often includes address 0x69 (clock chip).
