The meaning of all bits in this register, and its default value, did not change since the IT8705F, at least up to the IT8721F. I do not have the datasheet for the IT8728F, do I cannot comment on that. Maybe something changed for that chip, or - more likely - it is wired or configured in an unusual way on Stevie's board. A bit of archeology teaches us that the mysterious 0x36 mask comes from this commit 8 years ago: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=30678638d86ea855f89fe5c799d146af7a75b64e Before that the mask was 0xb7, which wasn't that different given that bit 7 always reads back 0, and bit 0 is about be set anyway. I think 0x80 was removed to avoid an unlikely double-reset of the chip when the module is loaded with reset=1. The 0xb7 is from the very first version of the it87 driver by Christophe Gauthron 11 years ago. I have no idea why bit 3 was explicitly cleared back then. > Replacing the 0x36 mask above with 0x3e might possibly solve > the problem. Indeed. I'm not too sure what to do about bit 5, BTW, it might be self-clearing as bit 7. Stevie, I have updated the driver at: http://khali.linux-fr.org/devel//misc/it87/ Please test it (make sure you don't get a cached version from your browser - line 2390 should have mask 0x3e.) -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
