Hi,

just another desparate user that wrung out lm-sensors.org, Google & Co. ;-)

First of all: I don't really have a problem, because lm-sensors work on my  
baby
But: There is some spamming in the kernel log (see subject and below)

-----

Now lets hear the details:

My system:
1x Intel Xeon DP E5506
..on Tyan S7002WGM2NR-LE (one CPU slot free)
..using KVR1066D3Q8R7SK3/12G as short-term memory
..with several SATA drives attached
..running Debian 2.6.26-17lenny2

As far as I understand aptitude, I installed:
lm-sensors 3.0.2-1+b2
..with libc6 2.7-18
..and libsensors4 3.0.2-1+b2
..and perl 5.10.0-19lenny2
..and sed 4.1.5-6

-----

What I modified in sensors3.conf:

[..]
chip "lm78-*" "lm79-*" "w83781d-*"
[..]
    ignore in0
    ignore in1
    ignore in2
    ignore in3
    ignore in4
    ignore in5
    ignore in6
[..]
     ignore fan1
     ignore fan2
     ignore fan3

    ignore temp1
    ignore cpu0_vid
[..]
chip "w83793-*"
[..]
    ignore fan6
    ignore fan7
    ignore fan8
    ignore fan9
    ignore fan10
    ignore fan11
    ignore fan12

    # This we have to reactivate when there is a second cpu installed..
    ignore temp2
    ignore temp5
[..]

Remarks: ignored anything from lm78.. because I got only rubbish from  
there - but Winbond works fine, nothing more that I need.

Output of "sensors" command gives me pretty good values (except min/max  
but I'm not keen on that):

me@myserver:~$ sensors

Remarks: don't wonder CPU temp, this is fully on load for more than 2 days  
now ;-)

Now, all that I need works thats good ... but lets have a look at my  
kernel log:

I do not really get to the point on what is causing those messages,  
because:
- I got readings (any other occurrence of this message I found got no  
sensor readings)
- I added only "ignores" to sensors3.conf (did I confused the kernel  
because I ignored anything from lm78??)
- There is no time schema I can identify, the messages seem to occur  
really arbitrary


What I did not do until now (I apologize, but have reasons):
- Restart of system (I don't want to restart because I think that message  
will come back)
- stopped sensord (because of the need to monitor the cpu temp, you know..)


Further:
- I installed phpsysinfo as well. Anything evil with that maybe?


Long story, short question: any hints?


Regards,
Nicolas
