Could you dump the chip again under high load? If it is some temperature sensor, we should see at least one register increase. I also have dumps from another user, and I'll try to compare yours and his, so as to locate invariant registers (which are candidates for chip or manufacturer ID). > Indeed, it no longer detects LM80 nor any other in its place. > Does this mean that I have a non-identified sensor chip, or that it > doesn't exist at all?

We never took the time to investigate because usually people have the via686a working well so they don't need more. That time I'll try to gather more data and maybe I'll learn something. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
