There is a problem with kernels using the /sys/class/hwmon interface and the order in which modules are loaded. For lm_sensors directly this may not matter, but it will cause all/most/some fancontrol scripts to fail. My Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9 mobo needs > cat /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors MODULE_0=it87 MODULE_1=k8temp When I run /etc/init.d/lm_sensors restart from the command line it always works: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0 -> ../../devices/platform/it87.656/hwmon/hwmon0 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/hwmon/hwmon1 However when booting, the fancontrol part of the service always fails. The reason is that when booting, hwmon entries are always created in reverse order. My workaround for now is > cat /etc/modprobe.d/sensors-hwmon-order install k8temp /sbin/modprobe it87; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install k8temp remove k8temp /sbin/modprobe --ignore-remove --remove k8temp && /sbin/modprobe --remove it87 This hasn't been a problem for previous kernels. Was this by chance, or has something changed? Volker -- Volker Kuhlmann is list0570 with the domain in header http://volker.dnsalias.net/ Please do not CC list postings to me.
