FYI there is a patch that fixes some voltage conversion troubles here; it hasn't made it to Linus yet though: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=106262291731729&w=3 Nothing else that I can see since 2.5.75. > How do I read these values?

This is a "raw" driver value which may need further adjustment in userspace. If you've ever used sensors with kernel 2.4 in the past, check /etc/sensors.conf to see what that conversion might be. The userspace library is not ready for 2.6, sorry. Regards, -- Mark M. Hoffman mhoffman at lightlink.com
