As requested, the output from sensors-detect (CVS) and i2cdetect (2.8.2). Please let me know if you are lacking information, that I may have to provide still. As for sensors-detect from 2.8.2, its output is as listed in the previous email (and below), the duplicate i2c-nforce2 is not a pasting error. Also, the CVS version of sensors-detect correctly identifies my chip as W83627HF instead pf w83781d, but I read in CHANGES that this is normal behaviour, because there didn't use to be a seperate driver for *HF.

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. 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): yes Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-nforce2' for device 00:01.1: nVidia Corporation nForce2 SMBus (MCP) Probe succesfully concluded. We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Load `i2c-nforce2' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): yes Module loaded succesfully. Do you now want to be prompted for non-detectable adapters? (yes/NO): 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): yes 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). Error: First argument not a number! Syntax: i2cdetect I2CBUS I2CBUS is an integer Installed I2C busses: i2c-0 smbus SMBus nForce2 adapter at 5000 Non-I2C SMBus adapter i2c-1 smbus SMBus nForce2 adapter at 5100 Non-I2C SMBus adapter Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do this. Do you want to scan the ISA bus?

(0x52) Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `w83781d' (may not be inserted): Misdetects: * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa') Chip `Winbond W83627HF' (confidence: 8) Driver `w83627hf' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa') Chip `Winbond W83627HF Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9) 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)? isa Error: First argument not a number!

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): yes Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/rc.d/init.d/lm_sensors for initialization at boot time. -------------- next part -------------- ****************************************************** * Scanned with i2cdetect 2.8.2, compiled from source * ****************************************************** barton:/home/sphere/media/sensors-detect# lsmod Module Size Used by Tainted: P i2c-dev 4352 0 (unused) i2c-nforce2 3464 0 (unused) i2c-core 15780 0 [i2c-dev i2c-nforce2] barton:/home/sphere/media/sensors-detect# i2cdetect 0 WARNING!
