I upgraded to "i2c/lm_sensors 2.10.0" on my two machines:
Hardware: 1) Toshiba P25 S609 laptop. Chipset: Intel 865PE + ICH5.
2) Desktop with KT40A-ANH 'Mach 4' motherboard. Chipset: Via
KT400A CD + Via 8235CE.
Software: Linux kernel 2.4.26, Slackware 10.0.
Results: Desktop now machine WORKS!
Laptop still does NOT detect any chips.
Below is laptop sensor-detect script.
The following is a possible clue,
.....
Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 18a0
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): Client found at address
0x08
Client found at address 0x44
Probing for `Maxim MAX6633/MAX6634/MAX6635'... Failed!
Client at address 0x50 can not be probed - unload all client drivers
first!
Client found at address 0x69
.....
If anyone has an idea I would appreciate it.
Thanks, Meir
********* TOSHIBA SENSORS-DETECT OUTPUT I2C/LM_SENSORS 2.10.0 ************
We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
You do not need any special privileges for this.
Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 00:1f.3: Intel 82801EB ICH5
Probe succesfully concluded.
We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
Module `i2c-i801' already loaded.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.
To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this.
i2c-dev is already loaded.

Sorry, no chips were detected.
Either your sensors are not supported, or they are
connected to an I2C bus adapter that we do not support.
