We would need to know: So I'll try my best ;-) > * Which version of the Linux kernel you are using. That's a 2.6.12-3mib3v ;-) which means a custom compilation of the Mandrake's cooker 2.6.12-3 Let me add immediately that I have always had the same lm_sensors "double initialization needed problem" since I have this board (Gigabyte GA7-VAXP), and thru each and every version of 2.4.x or 2.6.x kernels, and every version of lm_sensors I ran on it, for a long time... I had just been too lazy to report the problem before, but this problem is not related to this precise kernel... > * If this kernel has patches applied which could affect the i2c subsystem > or the it87 driver, we need to know which they are and what they do. Well, being a Mandrake kernel, it includes a number of patches from Mdk, which complete list I'm not aware of... > * Which version of "sensors" and "libsensors" you are using. These are Mandrake RPMs, I suppose the version is accurate...: [root at totor etc]# rpm -qa | grep -i sensors liblm_sensors3-devel-2.9.0-4mdk lm_sensors-2.9.0-4mdk liblm_sensors3-2.9.0-4mdk > * If lm_sensors has patches applied, we need a list. Uh... I'll try to get one from the source RPMs if you think it's absolutely necessary ;-)) > * What is your it87-compatible chip? IT8705? IT87012F? Which revision, if > you happen to know? Is it accessed through the SMBus or as an ISA device? ITE - IT8705F is written on the chip itself. lm_sensors accesses it thru the ISA bus. > * The complete sensors initialization script used. Please see attached. It's Mandrake's one... Just with my patch to call "sensors -s" a 2nd time if there are alarms. > * Which limits exactly don't get set by the first "sensors -s"? All? As far as I noticed, only the fans RPM thresholds are concerned. > Please provide the output of "sensors" before the first "sensors > -s", after the first "sensors -s" and after the second "sensors -s". I don't have them on hand, but what I can tell from memory is that after the 1st "sensors -s", the fans RPM thresholds are set to 5100+ something RPMs, which doesn't correspond at all to what I have in sensors.conf. After the 2nd "sensors -s", they are set properly. Here's the output of "sensors" with everything set properly here: [root at totor etc]# sensors lm90-i2c-0-4c Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000 LM90 T?: +48?C (low = +15?C, high = +60?C) Athlon T?: +50.8?C (low = +15.0?C, high = +70.0?C) LM90 Crit: +70?C (hyst = +60?C) CPU Crit: +80?C (hyst = +70?C) it87-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter CPU core: +1.74 V (min = +1.66 V, max = +1.84 V) DDRAM: +1.22 V (min = +1.17 V, max = +1.33 V) 3v3 I/O: +3.23 V (min = +3.14 V, max = +3.47 V) +5V: +5.04 V (min = +4.76 V, max = +5.26 V) +12V: +11.97 V (min = +11.39 V, max = +12.61 V) -12V: -11.11 V (min = -7.17 V, max = -16.76 V) -5V: -6.28 V (min = -2.48 V, max = -10.02 V) Stdby: +5.09 V (min = +4.76 V, max = +5.26 V) CPU Fan: 2057 RPM (min = 1599 RPM, div = 4) BOX Fan: 1318 RPM (min = 897 RPM, div = 8) > * Anything in the logs? Nothing special is visible when starting lm_sensors, but my kernel logs the following during its boot sequence: it87: Found IT8705F chip at 0x290, revision 2 it87 1-0290: Detected broken BIOS defaults, disabling PWM interface (What does this mean, btw ?) > Please keep in mind that this is *expected* that reported alarms won't > disappear immediately after changing the limits.

I understand, but what I observe prove that it's the thresholds that don't get set correctly as first "sensors -s" call, so it's not just an alarm problem...
