Yep, it's probably that. Temperature is read through these ports: OperationRegion (SEN1, SystemIO, 0x0295, 0x02) Field (SEN1, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve) { SEI0, 8, SED0, 8 } There was another bug report where these were also accessed via sensor modules... This should be caught by the acpi vs native interference checker in future. Bart: Those patches will pop up in next -mm release, it would be great if you can give them a try. You should see a message in your syslog the= n that a module failed to load...
