The link above points to a version of sensors-detect which doesn't include its version number. So, if you think it's version 5291, you haven't looked at the right file. That being said, http://dl.lm-sensors.org/lm-sensors/files/sensors-detect is the preferred download location now, as this one does have the version number included. > > http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2182 has a little more information on > > this particular chip; apparently there is more than one chip that gets > > detected as this one.
