Hi Marcus, > 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corp. 82801CA/CAM SMBus (rev 02) SMBus is there and properly supported by i2c-i801. However, I can only confirm what Rudolf told: hardware monitoring on Sony laptops isn't supported by lm_sensors. The only information I can get on mine is temperature through /proc/acpi, and the same hold true for all other Vaio owners I've discussed with so far. So I invite you to look in /proc/acpi/fan (empty for me) and /proc/acpi/thermal_zone, and that's probably all you can do. There is some docmuentation about the ACPI thermal zone here: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/documentation/thermal.html What lm_sensors *can* do for you is display what the Vaio proprietary EEPROM contains. With the eeprom driver loaded, "sensors" should display something like: eeprom-i2c-0-57 Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 1880 Machine name: PCG-GR214EP(FR) Serial number: 2833XXXX-546XXXX You can get even more information by running the decode-vaio.pl script. I wrote and maintain that script, and am interested in how it works for your laptop, so please let me know. -- Jean Delvare
