I am not surprised for the IBM eServer, we had several reports that these were using proprietary stuff for the hardware monitoring, so there's not much we can do. For the HP and Sun we didn't have reports that I can remember. There are several reasons why lm_sensors may not work on a given machine, we hardly know every hardware so it's hard for us to tell unless you provide more data. That would be: 1* Output of sensors-detect. 2* Visual inspection of the motherboards. If you see familiar chip names, tell us. Searching is easier when we know what we're after. 3* Documentation browsing. Maybe the technical documentation available for your products give hints. If they give the name of the chip, it helps. If they tell how many voltages, temperatures and fans are supposed to be monitored, that helps as well. If you provide that information, we'll let you know what you can hope to get from lm_sensors on your boards. -- Jean Delvare
