Output from 'uname -a' will suffice. [I ask this because there has been a lot of w83627hf driver work recently - for 2.6 kernels this happens in mainline (as opposed to lm_sensors CVS).] > >What did sensors-detect report? > > > > > Driver `eeprom' (may not be inserted): > Misdetects: > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x50 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x51 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x52 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x53 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x54 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x55 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x56 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x57 > Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 1) > > Driver `ddcmon' (should be inserted): > Detects correctly: > * Bus `I810/I815 DDC Adapter' (Algorithm unavailable) > Busdriver `i2c-i810', I2C address 0x50 (and 0x51 0x52 0x53 0x54 0x55 > 0x56 0x57) > Chip `DDC monitor' (confidence: 8) > > Driver `w83781d' (may not be inserted): > Misdetects: > * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa') > Chip `Winbond W83627HF' (confidence: 8) > > Driver `w83627hf' (should be inserted): > Detects correctly: > * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa') > Chip `Winbond W83627HF Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9) > > > > >Did you modify /etc/sensors.conf at all? > > > > > No. OK, could you please send the output of 'sensors'. One more question... does your BIOS have any kind of automatic fan controls? They are usually on the same BIOS screen that shows temperatures. Regards, -- Mark M. Hoffman mhoffman at lightlink.com
