It must have been hidden by the BIOS. In 2.6 the code for re-enabling such PCI devices is in drivers/pci/quirks.c. Some times ago, someone posted a patch for a Toshiba laptop. You might give it a try and/or use it as a base to tweak the code for your own use. http://archives.andrew.net.au/lm-sensors/msg18756.html You may also want to read the documentation in lm_sensors/prog/hotplug, and use lspci and setpci to find the correct values for the patch. > Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors?

Consult the technical docs that come with your laptop and/or contact the support and/or open the laptop and see by yourself. It may or may not include hardware monitoring functions. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
