That would be it :) Good news: we do support the ADM1027 (lm85 driver). > Which looks right on the money. Not sure it jives with your PC87366 > identification though? Since the hardware monitoring part of the PC87366 (if that's what it is) is disabled, this makes full sense that another hardware monitoring chip is present and used. > I'll let you know what I get from the vendor. Thanks again for > continuing to look into this! OK. One thing I'd like to add here is that on the above-mentioned MS-9245 page, there is a Windows "AMD 8111 SMBus Driver". So there *must* be a way to activate it under Linux too. Most likely, the ADM1027 chipset is connected to it. I believe that the only difficulty left is to enable the 8111 smbus. Once we know how to do it, we already have all the necessary drivers to driver your motherboard's monitoring system (if I'm not mistaking). -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
