Hi,
I want to use the sensors to show the hardware information on SUSE Linux 10. Afte the sensors-detect executing, I am told that I have to install the i2c-ipml and bmcsensors driver.
But I encouter the below error while make compiling the bmcsensors soure code. It seems that the gcc compiler can recognise the variable beginning with dot.(eg .name and .slave_send)
Can you please help to have a look ? your valuable information will be appreciated!

===============================
BTW, my linux kernel is 2.6.16.60-0.21-smp and I also successfully patched the ipmisensors-20060805-0622.diff. Below is the output of the sensors-detect.
==============================================================

This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to
load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and
lm_sensors installed before running this program.
Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-*
files, for most things.
If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built in, you can
safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may
seem a bit confusing, but they will still work.
It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all
questions, unless you know what you're doing.
We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
You do not need any special privileges for this.
Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): YES
Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Sorry, no PCI bus adapters found.
We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.
To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this.
i2c-dev is already loaded.
We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang halfway
through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double detected;
we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case.
If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can
specify that address to remain unprobed. That often
includes address 0x69 (clock chip).
Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. This is usually safe though.
Do you want to scan the ISA bus? (YES/no): YES

Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. This is usually safe though.

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `bmcsensors' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* ISA bus address 0x0ca0 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
Chip `IPMI BMC KCS' (confidence: 4)
I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules.
To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modprobe.conf:
#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----
To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-isa
# You must also install and load the IPMI modules
modprobe i2c-ipmi
# I2C chip drivers
# Warning: the required module bmcsensors is not currently installed on your system.
# For status of 2.6 kernel ports see http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/supported.html
# If driver is built-in to the kernel, or unavailable, comment out the following line.
modprobe bmcsensors
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----cut here----
WARNING! If you have some things built into your kernel, the list above
will contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones! You really should
try these commands right now to make sure everything is working properly.
Monitoring programs won't work until it's done.
Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no): YES
