Bad luck. > Ah, so this board has 2 sensors chips. Rick, can you see if the W83627EHF voltage are any good (IOW match the ones given by openguru)? Jean, about the bad luck part, the uguru revision 3 actually is a pretty nice chip (except for the lack of specs) as Rick writes I've written a userspace reading utility for it and it works fine for all people who have tested it (about 7 or so). I've also written a new kernel driver for this new revision (it uses an entirely different "protocol") which I've posted for review some time ago. If when can get some movement on that review then users with a newer uguru will no longer have bad luck, but instead a support chip. Regards, Hans
