I've installed version 2.10.0 with libsensors version 2.10.0 and now if I execute sensors-detect # sensors-detect revision 1.413 (2006/01/19 20:28:00) This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and lm_sensors installed before running this program. Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-* files, for most things. If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built in, you can safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may seem a bit confusing, but they will still work. It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions, unless you know what you're doing. 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): YES Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 00:1f.3: Intel 82801FB ICH6 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. We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang halfway through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case. If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can specify that address to remain unprobed. That often includes address 0x69 (clock chip). Next adapter: ISA main adapter Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): YES Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 0400 Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): YES 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 Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do this. This is usually safe though. Do you want to scan the ISA bus? (YES/no): YES Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' Trying address 0x0290... Failed! Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J' Trying address 0x0290... Failed! Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79' Trying address 0x0290... Failed! Probing for `Winbond W83781D' Trying address 0x0290... Failed! Probing for `Winbond W83782D' Trying address 0x0290...

Probing for `IPMI BMC SMIC' Trying address 0x0ca8... Failed! Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do this. This is usually safe though. Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): YES Probing for `ITE 8702F Super IO Sensors' Failed! (skipping family) Probing for `Nat. Semi. PC87351 Super IO Fan Sensors' Failed! (skipping family) Probing for `SMSC 47B27x Super IO Fan Sensors' Failed! (skipping family) Probing for `VT1211 Super IO Sensors' Failed! (0x88) Probing for `Winbond W83627HF Super IO Sensors' Failed!

(skipping family) Probing for `Winbond W83627EHF/EHG Super IO Sensors' Failed! (skipping family) Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `w83627ehf' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa') Chip `Winbond W83627EHF/EHG Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9) I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules. To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to /etc/modules.conf: #----cut here---- # I2C module options alias char-major-89 i2c-dev #----cut here---- To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file: #----cut here---- # I2C adapter drivers modprobe i2c-isa # I2C chip drivers # Warning: the required module w83627ehf is not currently installed on your system. # For status of 2.6 kernel ports see http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/supported.html # If driver is built-in to the kernel, or unavailable, comment out the following line. modprobe w83627ehf # sleep 2 # optional /usr/local/bin/sensors -s # recommended #----cut here---- WARNING! If you have some things built into your kernel, the list above will contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones! You really should try these commands right now to make sure everything is working properly. Monitoring programs won't work until it's done. Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no): YES Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/rc.d/init.d/lm_sensors for initialization at boot time. # Lsmod: Module Size Used by eeprom 12385 0 i2c_sensor 7489 1 eeprom i2c_isa 6081 0 i2c_i801 11725 0 vfat 16961 0 fat 44001 1 vfat nls_utf8 6081 0 md5 8001 1 ipv6 240225 30 autofs4 22597 0 i2c_dev 14273 0 i2c_core 25921 5 eeprom,i2c_sensor,i2c_isa,i2c_i801,i2c_dev sunrpc 142757 1 ipt_LOG 10049 3 ipt_limit 6337 3 ipt_state 5825 1 ip_conntrack 45573 1 ipt_state iptable_filter 6721 1 ip_tables 21441 4 ipt_LOG,ipt_limit,ipt_state,iptable_filter button 10449 0 battery 12869 0 ac 8773 0 uhci_hcd 32729 0 shpchp 84677 0 snd_azx 21072 0 snd_hda_codec 85957 1 snd_azx snd_pcm_oss 52345 0 snd_mixer_oss 21825 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 91973 3 snd_azx,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 27973 1 snd_pcm snd 56997 6 snd_azx,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 12961 1 snd snd_page_alloc 13641 2 snd_azx,snd_pcm sky2 39489 0 floppy 58065 0 dm_snapshot 20837 0 dm_zero 6337 0 dm_mirror 28449 0 ext3 118729 2 jbd 59481 1 ext3 dm_mod 59973 6 dm_snapshot,dm_zero,dm_mirror ata_piix 13381 0 libata 57885 1 ata_piix sd_mod 20545 0 scsi_mod 116941 2 libata,sd_mod Kernel is: 2.6.9-34.ELsmp So I tried "modprobe w83627ehf": FATAL: Module w83627ehf not found.

Note that I have not installed any part of i2c because the web site reports: "Linux 2.6 users do not need to get this i2c package, it's already part of the kernel tree." Any idea??
