So I've done : get rid of the external i2c package, compiled the built-in i2c
stack. make and make install for the lm_sensors (2.6.1)...
... It does not work

in /proc/sys/dev/sensors/ I've only one empty file called chips

with 2.4.13, I've the following :

[root@debian-f5ibh] ~ # ls /proc/sys/dev/sensors/
chips
w83781d-isa-0290/

[root@debian-f5ibh] ~ # cat /proc/sys/dev/sensors/chips
256     w83781d-isa-0290

[root@debian-f5ibh] ~ # ls /proc/sys/dev/sensors/w83781d-isa-0290/
alarms  beep  fan1  fan2  fan3  fan_div  in0  in1  in2  in3  in4  in5  in6  rt1
rt2  rt3  temp1  temp2  temp3  vid

As I wrote, version is 2.6.1
w83781d-isa-0290, there is _no_ modules with this name !
The needed modules are i2c-core, i2c-isa, i2c-proc, w83781d. They are loaded.

This is the clue. Without PnPBIOS enabled, the sensors work again. Thanks.


Alan, is there any known incompatiblity between PnPBIOS and the lm-sensors ?

I use it quite nicely on 2.4.12-ac3   the latest i2c stack is already in the 
ac branch, you need not compile it on your own.  lm sensors version 2.6.1 and 
up is supported.  Just compile and install it.  (make;make install).

Hi,

I use the lm-sensors on my system, it works fine with 2.2.20pre and 2.4.13 but
not with the ac tree, is there any reason for that ? I compile the i2c and
lm-sensors package as modules outside the kernel. The .config are the same for
both the kernels. The various modules (w83781d i2c-proc i2c-isa i2c-core) loads
fine with both systems.
