Re: lm_sensors procfs/sysfs problem
hi,
sorry for a delay, i couldn't access my computer during the weekend.
See how sensors-detect told me I needed the w83627hf and eeprom modules, as
well as the i2c-isa module. The i2c-* modules are just the communication
layer which must be used in conjuction with (in my case) w83627hf and
eeprom to actually provide information. What is the output of
sensors-detect?
for me, it requires only i2c_801 - that is strange.
output follows, sorry for long post...
# sensors-detect

This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to
load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and
lm_sensors installed before running this program.
Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-*
files, for most things.
If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built in, you can
safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may
seem a bit confusing, but they will still work.
It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all
questions, unless you know what you're doing.
We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
You do not need any special privileges for this.
Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): Yes
Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 00:1f.3: Intel 82801DB ICH4
Use driver `i2c-i810' for device 00:02.0: Intel 82845G GMCH
Probe succesfully concluded.
We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
Module `i2c-i801' already loaded.
Load `i2c-i810' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no):
Module loaded succesfully.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.
To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
If it is built-in into your kernel, you can safely skip this.
i2c-dev is not loaded. Do you want to load it now? (YES/no):
Module loaded succesfully.
We are now going to do the adapter probings. Some adapters may hang
halfway
through; we can't really help that. Also, some chips will be double
detected;
we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case.
If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address,
you can
specify that address to remain unprobed. That often
includes address 0x69 (clock chip).
Next adapter: I810/I815 DDC Adapter
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):
Next adapter: I810/I815 I2C Adapter
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):
Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 1880
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):
Client found at address 0x08
Client found at address 0x09
Probing for `Smart Battery Charger'... Success!
(confidence 5, driver `to-be-written')
Some chips are also accessible through the ISA bus. ISA probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. This is usually safe though.
Do you want to scan the ISA bus? (YES/no):

Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. Super I/O probes are
typically a bit more dangerous, as we have to write to I/O ports to do
this. This is usually safe though.

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `to-be-written' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 1880'
Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x09
Chip `Smart Battery Charger' (confidence: 5)
I will now generate the commands needed to load the I2C modules.
To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modules:
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
i2c-i801
# I2C chip drivers
# no driver for Smart Battery Charger yet
#----cut here----
Do you want to add these lines to /etc/modules automatically? (yes/NO)
that's all. no mention of eeprom or other modules :(
i'd be grateful for any hints... regards,
