Hello Rudolf

By the dump the only which changes are the first 2 columns if there are 
no problems

     0,8  1,9  2,a  3,b  4,c  5,d  6,e  7,f
00: 7802 f800 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004
same until
f8: 7802 f800 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004

Diff of last colum of several dumps

< f8: b002 b000 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004
 > f8: a802 a800 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004

< f8: a802 a800 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004
 > f8: 7802 f800 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004

< f8: 7802 f800 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004
 > f8: 6002 e000 2000 0005 a000 0004 0004 0004

If there is the problem with the bad temp. the dump is as follows:

     0,8  1,9  2,a  3,b  4,c  5,d  6,e  7,f
00: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
same until
f8: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

and syslog messages:

i2cdetect -l 
returns nothing but lm77 is without userspace support
