Hi all,

I have an ZOTAC ION ITX-B mainboard.
(http://pden.zotac.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_images.tpl&product_id=168&category_id=15&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1)

I'm running Debian Lenny stable, having lm-sensors installed, Version: 
1:3.0.2-1+b2.
The kernel version is 2.6.32, self-compiled

Here's some output I get:
# lspci
...
00:03.2 SMBus: nVidia Corporation Device 0aa2 (rev b1)
...

# sensors-detect
...
Found unknown SMBus adapter 10de:0aa2 at 0000:00:03.2.
...
    

A more recent version of sensors-detect (lm-sensors 3.1.0 or later)
would not show this message. Anyway, as long as the kernel itself knows
about the device (and this is your case) it doesn't really matter.

The i2c-nforce2 is used for the device, so it's OK.

Any help would be appreciated, maybe I can help supporting it!
    

You did not tell us which I2C/SMBus adapter i2c-0 was. But seeing the
chips at 0x50-0x57, I would guess this is your graphics adapter, rather
than the SMBus (unless you have 8 memory modules, but I wouldn't expect
that on any Zotac product.) The chip at 0x4c could be a temperature
monitoring chip, we'd need a dump to tell. But first just try a more
recent version of sensors-detect:
http://dl.lm-sensors.org/lm-sensors/files/sensors-detect

And report the full output.

  

Hi,

Thank you for your response.

In fact, actually some minutes before your repsonse I've already run the most recent version of sensors-detect as you suggested.

Here's the output:
...
Intel Atom thermal sensor...                                Success!
    (driver `coretemp')
...
Using driver `i2c-nforce2' for device 0000:00:03.2: nVidia Corporation nForce SMBus (MCP79)
...
Next adapter: SMBus nForce2 adapter at 4d00 (i2c-0)
Probing for `Winbond W83L771AWG/ASG'...                     Success!
    (confidence 6, driver `to-be-written')
...
Driver `to-be-written':
  * Bus `SMBus nForce2 adapter at 4d00'
    Busdriver `i2c_nforce2', I2C address 0x4c
    Chip `Winbond W83L771AWG/ASG' (confidence: 6)

Driver `coretemp':
  * Chip `Intel Atom thermal sensor' (confidence: 9)

Note: there is no driver for Winbond W83L771AWG/ASG yet.
Check http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for updates.


This means that the sensor could be detected but there is no driver for using it?

Cheers,
