Which Winbond chip? Not all of these are hardware monitoring chips, Winbond produces many many different chips. > i2c-sis96x version 1.0.0 > sis96x_smbus 0000:00:02.1: SiS96x SMBus base address: 0x0c00 > it87: Found IT8705F chip at 0x290, revision 3 That IT8705F chip, made by ITE, would be your hardware monitoring device. > However when I do I get > > root # sensors > No sensors found! I suspect that you did not load or compile in the i2c-isa driver, which you need in combination with the it87 driver. > root # sensors-detect > Can't access /proc/modules! at /usr/sbin/sensors-detect line 1837. This is an old bug affecting monolithic kernels, which was fixed in lm_sensors 2.8.8. You may want to upgrade, or hack the script by yourself (just remove the bogus check). > root # i2cdetect -l > i2c-0 unknown SiS96x SMBus adapter at 0x0c00 > Algorithm unavailable You should see the ISA pseudo-adapter as well (from the i2c-isa driver mentioned above). If you get this one, I'd expect the IT8705F chip to show the hardware monitoring data you are after. You'll find the i2c-isa driver under Device Drivers > I2C support > I2C Hardware Bus support when configuring your kernel, it's named "ISA Bus support". Just make sure you have it enabled. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors at lm-sensors.org http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
