I think the reason most of my multipliers are less than 1 is that:
The /proc/in0-in6 measured value keep such as (CR[20]*4 + CR[3E]&0x03)
Which are different from the traditional one, because they are about 4
times of CR[20]. While the /proc/in7-in8 only keep such as CR[B0]/
CR[B1],
so their multipliers are greater than 1.
I explained it in my mail sent on 2005-02-18, please refer it.

So my in0-in6 multipliers in sensors.conf is the quarter of the
traditional
one. If you multiply my multipliers of in0-in6 with the value 4, you
will
find that most of them will be greater than 1, except in0 and in1(0.8)

The multipliers in sensors.conf is corresponding with the data sheet,
You may check it. :-)

OK, please refer to the following function, Is it what you need?

If we can NOT find the exact reason about it, then we have to fix it
next
time after we commit it into CVS. :-(

Yes, you are right. It works well now.
