Let me make sure I have this correct - lm-sensor would then have to put a value into a register in the hardware-sensor-chip and then the chip creates the alarm? > It is interesting that you have two full-featured hardware monitoring > chips in your system. I'm rather surprised, I admit. I'm wondering if it is really just one chip - I tried commenting out one at a time to see if somehow appearing twice was the problem. I think it may be a host image due to incomplete hard ware encoding. This is a Tyan S2865 In case there is something being misidentified I have the spec sheet link here: ftp://ftp.tyan.com/datasheets/d_s2865_100.pdf The lm-config from tyan has: #To your etc/modules.conf file, add the lines: # alias char-major-89 i2c-dev # # To your /etc/rc.xxx files, add the lines: # modprobe i2c-nforce2 # modprobe lm85 force_emc6d100=0,0x2e # sensors -s # # Edited by: Raphael Deng <raphaeld@xxxxxxxx> 03.28.05 # # As LM-Sensors not support the SMSC DME1737 Chip, I use the SMSC # EMC6D100 chip to instead of it and the sensor 3.3V StandBy and # Battery Volt cannot be monitored. They then use chip "emc6d100-*" But this was from 2005.. I don't think it is right for todays version?? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt EMail Karl@xxxxxxxxxxxx Transtronics, Inc.
