new abituguru driver in mm kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ok, now another problem. Some of the times the module loads fine during
bootup but sensors reports that

$ sensors
Can't access procfs/sysfs file
Unable to find i2c bus information;
For 2.6 kernels, make sure you have mounted sysfs and libsensors
was compiled with sysfs support!
For older kernels, make sure you have done 'modprobe i2c-proc'!

If I rmmod abituguru and modprobe it again, it works. I will rebuild the
module and see if it helps.

The fallout of this is that gkrellm forgets about my sensors permanently. I
have to re-enable them and re-assign the labels etc....:(

Thanks,
-Sunil
