This doesn't mean that this is an LM99. You have a chip at address 0x38 on bus 2 and two at addresses 0x20 and 0x21 on bus 0. These are not typical addresses for hardware monitoring chips (especially not 0x38) but who knows? You may want to dump the chips contents for us to have a look, using i2cdump. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
