It seems that you have an older version of the it87 driver than your kernel version suggests. I can't explain it, we would need to know how exactly CentOS built their kernel. Anyway, it doesn't matter that much, you can live without vid readings - we aren't even sure if your boards support that. > The only other thing I can think of is I am running amd64 version of linux > which can sometimes cause some strange behaviors in applications. It can't explain the observed inconsistencies either, and I doubt it will cause any kind of problem on the lm_sensors side in general. -- Jean Delvare
