Hi, I am using lm-sensors version 2.9.1 in a Dell OptiPlex GX300 running Linux kernel 2.6.26. The first time I configured lm-sensors, it complained about two missing modules 'adm9240' & 'pc87360'. But at least I was able to get access to the CPU temperature. I asked the sys admin, to install this modules, and after that, now I get this error message: % sensors lm81-i2c-0-2c ERROR: Can't get adapter or algorithm?!? 2.5V: +1.65 V (min = +1.56 V, max = +1.80 V) Vccp1: +1.66 V (min = +1.57 V, max = +1.80 V) 3.3V: +2.46 V (min = +2.32 V, max = +2.66 V) 5V: +3.31 V (min = +3.10 V, max = +3.52 V) 12V: +5.00 V (min = +4.69 V, max = +5.31 V) Vccp2: +1.46 V (min = +1.39 V, max = +1.59 V) fan1: 0 RPM (min = -1 RPM, div = 8) ALARM fan2: 0 RPM (min = 168750 RPM, div = 8) ALARM temp: +45.0 C (high = +0 C, hyst = +1 C) alarms: Any ideas how to fix it? Thank you!

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): Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `rivatv' for device 01:00.0: RIVA UVTNT2 Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 00:1f.3: Intel 82801AA ICH Probe succesfully concluded. We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Load `rivatv' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): FATAL: Module rivatv not found. Loading failed... skipping. ** Note: rivatv module is available at http://rivatv.sourceforge.net/ Module `i2c-i801' already loaded. 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): 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 dcd0 Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): Client at address 0x18 can not be probed - unload all client drivers first!

Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `adm9240' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at dcd0' Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x2c Chip `National Semiconductor LM81' (confidence: 7) Driver `pc87360' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * ISA bus address 0x0c30 (Busdriver `i2c-isa') Chip `Nat. Semi. PC87364 Super IO Fan Sensors' (confidence: 9) 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: #----cut here---- # I2C adapter drivers i2c-i801 i2c-isa # I2C chip drivers # Warning: the required module adm9240 is not currently installed on your system. # For status of 2.6 kernel ports see http://secure.netroedge.com/ ~lm78/supported.html # If driver is built-in to the kernel, or unavailable, comment out the following line. adm9240 # Warning: the required module pc87360 is not currently installed on your system. # For status of 2.6 kernel ports see http://secure.netroedge.com/ ~lm78/supported.html # If driver is built-in to the kernel, or unavailable, comment out the following line. pc87360 #----cut here---- Do you want to add these lines to /etc/modules automatically?
