Anyone know why this happens? I am monitoring the temperature sensors on my Dell GX1 box, and I get the following in dmesg: i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed reset at end of transaction (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed reset at end of transaction (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) i2c_adapter i2c-0: Failed! (01) I am using lm-sensors 2.8.7. Relevant modules include: $ lsmod Module Size Used by adm1021 12092 0 i2c_piix4 5648 0 i2c_sensor 2912 1 adm1021 i2c_dev 7776 0 i2c_core 19312 4 adm1021,i2c_piix4,i2c_sensor,i2c_dev Of course the ``secret'' to getting the temperature sensors to work on a Dell is two options when loading the i2c driver and the adm1024 driver. TYPE="/sbin/modprobe" $TYPE i2c_piix4 force=1 $TYPE adm1021 read_only=1 The force is required to enable it, otherwise I do not believe it even loads. The read_only=1 is so it does not change the temperature range in the monitoring chip, if read_only=1 is not set and the machine gets hot, say from compiling the kernel, the machine shuts itself off. My question is, why all the failed transactions? I graph the temperature without any issues (system and CPU) but I still get some of these in dmesg, any ideas?
