This message was previously sent to the lm-sensors list on Friday 26-March-2010. Resending in hopes someone, anyone, has any ideas regarding this matter. Thank you. ---------------- Hello, I am using the Jetway NC-92-330-LF as a multi-purpose firewall and router with the attachment of the 3 port GigE daughterboard. In Fedora Core 10, the sensors on the Fintek 71862FG Super I/O chip were detected and accessible to LM-Sensors. Now in Fedora Core 12 running kernel 2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686.PAE the Fintek F71862FG sensors are not accessible to LM-Sensors, apparently due to ACPI conflict.

ACPI has reserved that IO ports, so the hwmon driver is not allowed to touch them. Starting from 2.6.31 the kernel actually enforces that reservation.
