thanks fellows for your reply for my ticket 1575. however, i am confused, on your supported driver, vt8231 is listed and it says it supports linux 2.5.x does it mean that this vt8231 does not work on 2.6.2? the sensors-detect successfully detects vt8231 why it doesn't load it? thanks, Jeff http://greetings.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
