I am working with Debian SARGE on a 2.6.8-2 kernel installation and, thanks to Aaron Marsh, I now have a working vt8231 driver in my system. (If anyone has had problems compiling it for Debian Sarge then I can happily mail you a copy of mine ). I noticed that the vt8231 driver would not start if the i22-viapro module was installed. I suspect this is because they both try and control the same PCI device (the VT8231 chip) and therefore you can only have one installed at a time. If you install the i2c-viapro first then the vt8231 driver never gets started and you never get the temp/voltage information. The i2c-viaprobe driver allows the i2c bus to be accessed, so if it is installed then I can see the RAMs that are on the bus. If I remove the i2c-viapro and install the vt8231 then I get the voltage and temperature information. Here are my questions: 1) Does anyone know what the plan is for combining the vt8231 and i2c-viapro modules so that a single module can access both the I2C bus and the temperature/voltage information at the same time ? 2) Does anyone know the CORRECT information for the scaling coefficients for the temperature and voltage ? If it helps any, below are the raw numbers that I get from my box: edensnake:~# cat /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/vt8231/1-6000/*_input 0 // fan1 0 // fan2 204 // in0 202 // in1 201 120 213 201 // in5 2040 //temp2 747 //temp3 0 0 0 0 // temp7 edensnake:~# They seem reasonable given the range that things should be running over, but I don?t want to try and guess at the correct conversion table. I have tried the table from Aaron Marsh?s site (http://www.stanford.edu/~amarsh/vt8231/sensors.conf) but that gives me the result below, which looks a bit wrong to me (although they do seem to fairly closely match what others have seen: http://archives.andrew.net.au/lm-sensors/msg18667.html) edensnake:~# sensors vt8231-isa-6000 Adapter: ISA adapter VCore1: +0.30 V (min = -0.05 V, max = +0.39 V) +5V: +0.23 V (min = -0.08 V, max = +0.56 V) +12V: +1.09 V (min = -0.18 V, max = +1.34 V) fan1: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 2) fan2: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 2) ERROR: Can't get TEMP2 data!
