Hi,

Add info:
I have found software called open hardware monitor. I have been testing it in windows for couple of days and it works properly with Nuvoton NST6776F chip. I have been comparing results with AI Suite software coming from ASUS and results are corresponding and measuring is with big precise. So , you can have a look to source code and compare with your driver. This software should work on linux as well but I did not try it yet but I will.

(I did not tried your experimental driver yet but I will)

Regards,
Martin

Hi,

I have found for long time ago that CPUTIN temperature is not showed correctly by sensors command:

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Physical id 0:  +34.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +98.0°C)
Core 0:         +30.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +98.0°C)
...
nct6776-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
...
CPUTIN:        -60.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, hyst = +75.0°C)  sensor = diode
...

I have cheked it in BIOS and in AI Suite in windows 7 64 bit and consulted it with ASUS technical support and everything is working properly.
So , hardware is fine. Software in windows is fine. Only linux software is not correct.
I have tried to detect-sensor many times and it is still the same.
If there is some kind of tweak in config please let me know but it seems to me there is something wrong with lm-sensors 3.3.1.

This error have appeared on maximus iv extreme motherboard Revision 3 , BIOS from 1404 to 3202 (latest)
linux ubuntu natty -> oneiric 64 bit kernel from 2.6.39 up to 3.0.0-19 commercial version (tested on 3.3.1 compiled by me)

Could you please help me to solve it ?

Thank you very much for any clue.
