The sensors-detect script is confused by the fact that two possible chips were detected at address 0x4d. It *should* chose the higher-confidence'd one and silently ignore the other one. Attached is a patch that I believe should do that. I can't really test it, could you please apply and test? > Board: +53?C (low = +20?C, high = +60?C) > CPU: +52?C (low = +20?C, high = +60?C) > (...) > Board: -101?C (low = -101?C, high = -101?C) > CPU: -101?C (low = -101?C, high = +60?C) ALARM (HIGH) Interesting. Without the config file, everything seems to be OK. Once you tell sensors to read the config file, values are weird. What's even stranger is that the config section for thmc50 is almost empty. So it looks like a coincidence to me. > Thu Sep 11 16:47:11 EST 2003 > >>> even though the time indicates 1-2seconds have passed, in reality > >>> a HELL of a lot more time has passed This means that your system clock itself is being slowed.

The problem is obviously there. The adm1021 module isn't even loaded and i2c-piix4 already complains. So that's your piix4 that is causing the trouble, not the thmc50 chipset. On the other hand, you have the same messages on your second try, while everything is working OK. > After the reboot I try again, this time telling lmsensors to use the > ISA bus for its readings.

I believe sensors-detect gives you the same configuration files in both cases. So, if you observe a different behavior, there must be something else that is significantly different. > And now for the AMD system.

Please provide the output of "i2cdump 1 0x4e" (after unloading the adm1021 module). I'll take a look, maybe you have a chipset we don't have support for yet. > Not sure what further info I can give you.

You have to do some more testing and find another difference. I don't think we can help you without that information. For the second problem, provide the requested output and we'll see what we can do.
