OK- Here it is. Although I didn't include it, sensors-detect still reccommends loading the adm1021 module. I use an ABIT NF7-S v2.0. I also have an NV7-133R (NForce 1 ABIT board), and a whole slew of MSI NForce2 boards (forgot the model #) at the office. Would it be worthwhile to try this on one of those machines? I still haven't quite figured out if the particular sensors used on any particular MB are dependant on manufacturers choice or dictated by the bus and chipset being used. -Chris Here is output for sensors-detect.

I have updated sensors-detect in CVS, could you please give it a try and confirm that it will *not* pretend you have an adm1021-compatible chip anymore? Also, I'd be very interested by the output of i2cdump for this mysterious chip. Thanks. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
