Dear listmembers, can some gentle person give me some insight in how to understand the following messages: Sep 2 13:04:06 linux kernel: piix4_smbus 0000:00:0f.0: Found 0000:00:0f.0 device Sep 2 13:04:06 linux kernel: piix4_smbus 0000:00:0f.0: Unusual config register value Sep 2 13:04:06 linux kernel: piix4_smbus 0000:00:0f.0: Try using fix_hstcfg=1 if you experience problems Sep 2 13:04:06 linux kernel: piix4_smbus 0000:00:0f.0: Illegal Interrupt configuration (or code out of date)! Is this potentially harmful? Should I do something about it? I reinserted the module with parameter fix_hstcfg=1, sensors-detect finds no devices but it says: ****** Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0580 Do you want to scan it?

Thank you very much in helping understand, take care Dieter Jurzitza -- ----------------------------------------------------------- | \ /\_/\ | | ~x~ |/-----\ / \ /- \_/ ^^__ _ / _ ____ / <??__ \- \_/ | |/ | | || || _| _| _| _| if you really want to see the pictures above - use some font with constant spacing like courier! :-) -----------------------------------------------------------
