David, here is the output of sensors-detect. I am also running a 2.6.18 kernel (centos) with sensors version 2.8.7 with libsensors version 2.8.7 Let me know what you find out. Regards, Paul Aviles [root at srv1 sbin]# ./sensors-detect 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): y 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. Load `i2c-i801' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): y Module loaded succesfully. 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 not loaded. Do you want to load it now? (YES/no): y Module loaded succesfully. 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: SMBus I801 adapter at 1480 (Algorithm unavailable) Do you want to scan it?

(skipping family) Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `lm85' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 1480' (Algorithm unavailable) Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x2e Chip `Analog Devices ADM1027, ADT7460 or ADT7463' (confidence: 8) Driver `eeprom' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 1480' (Algorithm unavailable) Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x53 Chip `SPD EEPROM' (confidence: 8) I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules. Sometimes, a chip is available both through the ISA bus and an I2C bus. ISA bus access is faster, but you need to load an additional driver module for it. If you have the choice, do you want to use the ISA bus or the I2C/SMBus (ISA/smbus)? 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-i801 # I2C chip drivers modprobe lm85 modprobe eeprom # sleep 2 # optional /usr/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): Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/rc.d/init.d/lm_sensors for initialization at boot time. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
