I tried all of the methods below and still no success. I have attached a file containing the results from dmesg. I appreciate the help.

I took a look at the chipset's dump and can't understand why this happens. I fixed a small, probabably unrelated bug in that driver. Please update your CVS checkout and recompile the driver with DEBUG=1 (edit the Makefile). Run "make install". Then, try loading the driver again (don't forget to unload it before doing so) and watch dmesg for details. See if sensors returns something. If it doesn't help, unload the driver and reload it using force=0,0x2d. Look at dmesg again. Check wether sensors returns the information you are looking for. If it still doesn't help, unload the driver once again and reload it using force_w83791d=0x2d. Look at dmesg again. Run sensors again. > Is it possible that the information from that chip is not available? The chip is there at 0x2d, doubtlessly. > Do I need to do a force of the chip and subclients? You shouldn't, but it might help understanding where the problems stands. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
