Hi. I've read the FAQ, and see the error message I am receiving, but the answer does not seem to apply. I am running Debian sarge, with a 2.6.10 kernel that I have built, the user programs of lm_sensors-2.9.0, and the 2.6.10 kernel patch. I am able to run sensors, and get valid output, but the values that are marked ignore in the sensors.conf are reported as unreadable. I changed a label value in the conf file and saw the output of sensors change, so I know I am looking at the correct configuration file. I have added a debug message to progs/sensors/chips.c to print out the result of sensors_get_ignored, and see that the config file is being used to determine that the values should be ignored. mcarland at myth:~/lm_sensors-2.9.0/prog/sensors$ lsmod Module Size Used by vt1211 16692 0 i2c_sensor 2784 1 vt1211 i2c_isa 1600 0 lirc_serial 11328 0 lirc_dev 11404 1 lirc_serial mcarland at myth:~/lm_sensors-2.9.0/prog/sensors$ uname -a Linux myth 2.6.10myth-via #5 Thu Feb 3 21:24:11 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux mcarland at myth:~/lm_sensors-2.9.0/prog/sensors$ ./sensors -v sensors version 2.9.0 with libsensors version 2.9.0 mcarland at myth:~/lm_sensors-2.9.0/prog/sensors$ ./sensors vt1211-isa-6000 Adapter: ISA adapter Ignored : 0 vt1211 ERROR: Can't get IN0 data!

Ignored : 1 vt1211 vid: +2.050 V (VRM Version 8.2) I see that the logic to print out the values checks the ignored status, but doesn't use it until after an attempt to read the values: if (!sensors_get_label_and_valid(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0,&label,&valid) && !sensors_get_feature(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0,&cur) && !sensors_get_feature(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0_MIN,&min) && !sensors_get_feature(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0_MAX,&max)) { if (valid) { print_label(label,10); printf("%+6.2f V (min = %+6.2f V, max = %+6.2f V) %s\n", cur,min,max,alarms&VT1211_ALARM_IN0?"ALARM":""); } } else printf("ERROR: Can't get IN0 data!\n"); free_the_label(&label); Shouldn't either sensors_get_feature(...) not do the read if the feature is not valid (only that function would have to be changed), or more appropriately change the logic for each section like the one above to break if !valid, before sensors_get_feature(...) is called? Something like if (sensors_get_label_and_valid(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0,&label,&valid)) { printf("ERROR: Can't get IN0 data!\n"); } else if (valid) { if (!sensors_get_feature(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0,&cur) && !sensors_get_feature(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0_MIN,&min) && !sensors_get_feature(*name,SENSORS_VT1211_IN0_MAX,&max)) { print_label(label,10); printf("%+6.2f V (min = %+6.2f V, max = %+6.2f V) %s\n", cur,min,max,alarms&VT1211_ALARM_IN0?"ALARM":""); } else printf("ERROR: Can't get IN0 data!\n"); } free_the_label(&label); Or have I got something else wrong?
