I've attached the output from dmidecode 2.3, in case it's of use. I can't load SMSC47m1: [root at gb0010 lm_sensors-2.8.4]# modprobe smsc47m1 /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/chips/smsc47m1.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/chips/smsc47m1.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/chips/smsc47m1.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/chips/smsc47m1.o: insmod smsc47m1 failed I can load adm1026, but it doesn't seem to have any effect, perhaps because it's missing a bridge chip or something, [root at gb0010 lm_sensors-2.8.4]# modprobe adm1026 [root at gb0010 lm_sensors-2.8.4]# cat /proc/sys/dev/sensors/chips [root at gb0010 lm_sensors-2.8.4]# lsmod|grep adm adm1026 36952 0 (unused) i2c-proc 20336 0 [adm1026] i2c-core 44048 0 [adm1026 i2c-proc i2c-algo-bit i2c-dev] Also, here's what I get when I try to load non-detectable adapters. If I let it scan " ELV Parallel port adaptor (Bit-shift algorithm)", it goes into space until I kill it. [root at gb0010 lm_sensors-2.8.4]# prog/detect/sensors-detect This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. 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): Probing for PCI bus adapters... Sorry, no PCI bus adapters found. We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Do you now want to be prompted for non-detectable adapters? (yes/NO): yes Load `i2c-elektor' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-elektor Loading failed... skipping. Load `i2c-elv' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): Module loaded succesfully. Load `i2c-philips-par' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-philips-par Loading failed... skipping. Load `i2c-velleman' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-velleman.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-velleman.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-velleman.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-e.12MARsmp.mr18k/kernel/drivers/i2c/i2c-velleman.o: insmod i2c-velleman failed Loading failed... skipping. 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 already loaded. 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). Next adapter: ELV Parallel port adaptor (Bit-shift algorithm) Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): no 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? (YES/no): Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' Trying address 0x0290... Failed! Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J' Trying address 0x0290... Failed!

Either your sensors are not supported, or they are connected to an I2C bus adapter that we do not support.
