What's the reason for this behaviour? The pc87360 driver, which you are using, is the very last one that has not yet been converted to the (somewhat new) standard to export alarm information. This standard is what lm-sensors 3.x uses. Jim Cromie (Cc'd) has been working on it lately and he has patches that should implement what you need. I didn't have the time to review these patches and probably won't have the time to do so in a near future. Maybe you can give them a try and report. -- Jean Delvare
