The LSB of that input voltage channel is worth 0.008V, so the slightest change could result in the different reading. > I have tested this both in console, and in a terminal window under X, > both result always in 1.500.

There are two reasons it can be: 1* The motherboard manufacturer did not wire the VID input pins. Unlikely with Intel. 2* You use a recent kernel and a not-so-recent lm_sensors. For a 2.6.9-rc1 or higher kernel, you need lm_sensors 2.8.8 or higher. > adm1027-i2c-0-2e > Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at c400 > ERROR: Can't get alarm mask data! > V1.5: +1.471 V (min = +1.42 V, max = +1.58 V) > VCore: +1.500 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) ALARM > V3.3: +3.403 V (min = +3.13 V, max = +3.47 V) > V5: +5.156 V (min = +4.74 V, max = +5.26 V) > V12: +12.313 V (min = +11.38 V, max = +12.62 V) > CPU_Fan: 3170 RPM (min = 4000 RPM) ALARM > Front/Power_Fan: > 2881 RPM (min = 0 RPM) > Rear/Exit_Fan: > 2884 RPM (min = 0 RPM) > CPU: +27.00?C (low = +10?C, high = +50?C) > Board: +25.00?C (low = +10?C, high = +35?C) > Remote: +27.00?C (low = +10?C, high = +35?C) > ERROR: Can't get PWM1 data! > ERROR: Can't get PWM2 data! > ERROR: Can't get PWM3 data! Errors on PWM would also be explained by a "too" recent kernel. I'd invite you to try a newer version of lm_sensors, that would certainly help. If this isn't an option, then you can temporarily do the following: > chip "lm85c-*" "adm1027-*" "adt7463-*" "lm85-*" "lm85b-*" > (...) > # PWM Outputs > ignore pwm1 > ignore pwm2 > ignore pwm3 > (...) > set in1_min 1.500 * 0.95 > set in1_max 1.500 * 1.05 That way the errors on PWM will ge hidden and the limits for Vcore will be set correctly (after you run sensors -s). -- Jean Delvare
