[lm-sensors] lmsensors in 2.6.16 on a Tyan 2882-D motherboard,

[marc@corky.net (Just Marc)]

Hello everyone,

It's my first time setting lm-sensors up, the process was pretty 
painless after skimming the docs and FAQ.

The chips detected for my board are lm85 and w83627hf,  I tried using 
the debian package supplied sensors.conf and the Tyan supplied at 
ftp://ftp.tyan.com/software/lms/lms_s2882.tgz .  Tyan say that this file
is for version 2.8.0 though I'm using the one which comes with the 
2.6.16 kernel.

I would like to monitor all of the data provided by the sensors, though 
it appears that I'm not getting a good reading on some of the voltages,  
temperatures and all the rest seem right, though.

After a few further hours of reading various docs I still was not able 
to find a way to get it just right.  As this is the first time I'm using 
this package I don't even know how much of a skew is acceptable for 
these particular readings but some of the readings seem way out of the 
suggested min/max ranges.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Marc
