Hi Juerg,

Of course - works perfectly. It said

[..]
Trying family `SMSC'...                                     Yes
Found `SMSC SCH5027D-NW Super IO'
    (hardware monitoring capabilities accessible via SMBus only)
[..]

If I can do anything else - just let me know.

Should I try some lm-sensors's svn branch/revision to test if all fans are
monitored now? If there is such - could you send me URL?

Many thanks,
Andrew Voznytsa
