Re: [lm-sensors] Help to make lm-sensors work with an Asus TUSL2-C

[Mauro Molinari <mauromol@tiscali.it>]

Hi to all,
I see that many have come back from the holidays! :-P
Maybe someone has some more suggestions to help me with my case? :-)

Thanks in advance,
Mauro.

P.S.: my last mail follows for convenience.

Hi Andrey, thanks for your help!
I just downloaded the latest version of sensors-detect from here:
http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/iwizard/NoSensorsDetected

Some progress is made compared to the version I have in my Linux 
distribution, because the latest script says:

Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'...               Yes
Found unknown chip with ID 0x5953
     (logical device 9 has address 0x290, could be sensors)

However, later it still says:
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' at 0x290...       No
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79' at 0x290...       No
Probing for `Winbond W83781D' at 0x290...                   No
Probing for `Winbond W83782D' at 0x290...                   No

And finally again:
Sorry, no sensors were detected.

So, it seems like something is present at 0x290, but nothing lm-sensors 
can detect. The strange thing is that from what I read on the Internet 
(as stated in my previous mail message), my mainboard (Asus TUSL2-C) 
should actually have a AS99127F chip, supported by the w83781d driver.

Please note I have the following warning message at boot:
[   10.092229] i801_smbus 0000:00:1f.3: PCI INT B -> GSI 17 (level, low) 
-> IRQ 17
[   10.092243] ACPI: I/O resource 0000:00:1f.3 [0xe800-0xe80f] conflicts 
with ACPI region SM00 [0xe800-0xe806]
[   10.092291] ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you 
should use it instead of the native driver

However I did some research on the Internet and found out that this 
should not be a problem and simply means that the native driver is not 
used, because an AHCI interface to the i801 SMBus device is available. 
Actually, the sensors-detect correctly queries that device:
Using driver `i2c-i801' for device 0000:00:1f.3: Intel 82801BA ICH2
but it still doesn't find any sensor there, however I don't think this 
is in any way related to my problem.

Any suggestion?

Mauro
