Interesting, Jean.
Now, s-d is recommending I insert pcf8591 but it did not before! What
IS it about my system and port 0x4c? For that matter, can you have two
drivers trying to access different chips at the same port??? Isn't that
what got me into trouble in the first place?
Driver `pcf8591' (should be inserted but causes problems):
Detects correctly:
* Bus `SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000' (Non-I2C SMBus adapter)
Busdriver `i2c-viapro', I2C address 0x4e
Chip `Philips Semiconductors PCF8591' (confidence: 1)
Misdetects:
* Bus `SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000' (Non-I2C SMBus adapter)
Busdriver `i2c-viapro', I2C address 0x4c
Chip `Philips Semiconductors PCF8591' (confidence: 1)
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-viapro
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe lm90
modprobe pcf8591
modprobe eeprom
modprobe it87
Anyway, the whole sensors-detect output is attached.

This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to
load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and
lm_sensors installed before running this program.
Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-*
files, for most things.
If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built-in, you can
safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may
seem a bit confusing, but they will still work.
BIOS vendor (ACPI): KT400
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).
Next adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000 (Non-I2C SMBus adapter)

Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are

Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:

I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules.
Sometimes, a chip is available both through the ISA bus and an I2C bus.
ISA bus access is faster, but you need to load an additional driver module
for it. If you have the choice, do you want to use the ISA bus or the
I2C/SMBus (ISA/smbus)?
To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modules.conf:
#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
options pcf8591 ignore=0,0x4c
#----cut here----
To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-viapro
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe lm90
modprobe pcf8591
modprobe eeprom
modprobe it87
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/local/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----cut here----
WARNING! If you have some things built into your kernel, the list above
will contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones! You really should
try these commands right now to make sure everything is working properly.
Monitoring programs won't work until it's done.
Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no):
Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/rc.d/init.d/lm_sensors
for initialization at boot time.
