Thanks Guenter. Unfortunately I dont see the adapter in the output. I had to load the i2c-dev driver manually and the output is as follows: $ sudo i2cdetect -li2c-0 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus DVI_DDC I2C adapteri2c-1 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus VGA_DDC I2C adapteri2c-2 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus MONID I2C adapteri2c-3 i2c Radeon i2c bit bus CRT2_DDC I2C adapter > Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2014 09:40:24 -0800 > From: linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx > To: sean451@xxxxxxxxxxx > CC: jdelvare@xxxxxxx; lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: Supermicro X7DBU configuration > > On Wed, Dec 17, 2014 at 11:54:24AM -0500, Sean O'Brien wrote: > > Thanks for the help guys. > > The driver is loaded. It is placed into /etc/modules by a run of sensor-detect, so it sees it. It shows up in the output of lsmod and a replace of the module using modprobe doesn't show any errors when loading it. However, as you point out, it doesn't show up in the output of the sensors commands (after running sensors -s also). Perhaps this is also and issue with the /etc/sensors3.conf files not having the appropriate entries for this board? The entry in there for this chip is as follows: > > chip "w83793-*" > > label in0 "VcoreA" label in1 "VcoreB" label in7 "+5V" label in8 "5VSB" label in9 "Vbat" > > set in7_min 5.0 * 0.90 set in7_max 5.0 * 1.10 set in8_min 5.0 * 0.90 set in8_max 5.0 * 1.10 set in9_min 3.0 * 0.90 set in9_max 3.0 * 1.10 > > > > The configuration file should not cause the chip to disappear completely. > > Can you provide the output of i2cdump for the w83793 ? i2cdetect -l should show > you which bus it is on after loading the 2ic-dev driver; it is the i801 adapter. > Command would be "sudo i2cdump <bus> 0x2f". > > > Btw.
