The values reported seem correct but all changes (e.g. > echoing values to the pwm# registers) are ignored... This is a feature of the LM85. I remember I read that some times ago. (reading again) Yes, here it is. Bit 1 of register 0x40 is lock. Once set to 1, all limits are read only, and that bit itself becomes read only. And yes, that bit it set to 1 on your chip. Blame your motherboard manifacturer for that (I guess). > Intel claims there is an SMSC LPC47M172 on board. We don't have support for this one yet, but support some members of the family in the smsc47m1 driver. Maybe you could give it a try (using CVS version is recommended). They are ISA chips so they don't appear on the I2C bus. > Output of syslog > ----------------------- > Oct 1 20:34:24 elexis kernel: lm85(0): Client (0,0x2e) config is > locked.

Yes, that happends, especially after dumping address 0x69 which is a clock chip you should avoid playing with. > Do you have an idea how to solve that problem? I am afraid you can't do anything :( > PS: sorry if I sent it multiple - my posts didn't appear on the list. Got only one, so it's OK :) -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
