The address you are writing to at the moment is an alias for the list, so you finally found it ;) > I already started a ticket with the number 1841. > When running sensors -s and then sensors I get > > asus:/sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-004c# sensors > max1617-i2c-0-4c > Adapter: SiS96x SMBus adapter at 0x0c00 > Board: +56??C (low = +0??C, high = +70??C) > CPU: +54??C (low = +50??C, high = +70??C) > > So the values for Board have been set correctly but for CPU it shows no > effect. These values are different from what you said on the ticket, so there have actually been some values written at some point. In the ticket I told you to try writing the values to the sysfs files directly and see how it was going. Did you try? Beware that sysfs expects temperature values in 0.001 degree C (so for example 70 degrees is 70000). > I was told to send a dump of the chip so here it is. > (...) This is most certainly a Maxim MAX6657, MAX6658 or MAX6659, not MAX1617. Do you have some documentation that would confirm that? I guess you do not have the possibility to open the case and check ;) The sensors-detect script should have detected the chip and suggested the lm90 driver, not adm1021. Didn't it? Please provide the full log of sensors-detect *after* you unload the adm1021 driver. -- Jean Delvare
