Is this a single or multi-cpu system? I would like to see the contents of /proc/cpuinfo. > Micro code was working on 2.6.29 and 2.6.39 , then I jumped to 3.0.6. I admit I don't quite get it for now. While the device probing logic was modified a lot in the coretemp driver of kernel 3.0, the microcode check did not change, so I just don't get why the new driver would behave differently from the previous ones in this respect. For testing purposes, I made the 2.6.39 version of the coretemp driver available as a standalone driver: http://khali.linux-fr.org/devel/misc/coretemp_old/ (Instructions at http://khali.linux-fr.org/devel/misc/INSTALL ) I would like you to test it on your 3.0 kernel and report whether it is working or not. You'll have to rmmod the original coretemp driver before loading coretemp_old, you can't have both loaded at once. If coretemp_old works, then please rmmod it and modprobe coretemp again, and see if it then works. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
