Jean, I will try the latest sensors-detect and report back to you. I won't be able to do it until much later today or tomorrow as my daughter is in a soccer tournament and I will be away most of today and tomorrow (if she makes the finals -- on esp?re toujours.). One question. If I do NOT insert the lm90 driver, but decide to use adm1021 (gulp), do I still need to ignore ports 0x4c and 0x4e? I would imagine I would ignore 0x18 and 0x4e since lm90 appears to be at 0x4c. Maybe I'll back up again and try..... I'll keep you informed. Thanks again!
