But I have no idea what this corresponds to. I do not have the FSC Scylla datasheet. OK, after digging into the old fscscy driver code, it seems that the "min" and "max" temperature values returned by the driver aren't limits, but the minimum and maximum measured temperatures over the driver lifetime. Weird, no other driver does this. So "lim" would presumably be the high temperature limit which all other drivers call max or high or over. This confirms my intuition that we don't need any "LIM" temperature display type.

I'll let you commit the fixes you suggested for voltages now. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare
