This chip is completly new to us and I guessed from binary dump it could be lm85 compatible somehow. Maybe it is more compatible with some other LMxx family chip. I must check. The values you are observing may be simply misinterpretation of some register value that happens to have one meaning for lm85 compatible chip, but for a8000 might have another meaning. > There seems to be a few discrepancies between the sensors detected by > lm-sensors and Everest (http://www.lavalys.com/): > > > EVEREST > > Temperature > * /dev/hda > * /dev/sda This is from S.M.A.R.T. use smartctl or hddtemp > Which may overlap my last question: > > So now that I have all these sensors -- what's the significance of > their readings?

I cant tell you much info to rest of voltages - they might reflect real voltages or it can be misinterpretation too. I will ask you to run some commands when I will think out some :) Regards Rudolf
