From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: If you don't edit /etc/sensors.conf sensors doesn't show any values. If you edit the /etc/sensosr.conf to recognize it8712 (add the chip it8712-* section) sensors -s complains then on wrong values in sensors.conf : #sensors -s Error: Line 1402: Unknown feature name Error: Line 1403: Unknown feature name for all lines in sensors.conf like: set in0_min ... set in0_max ... etc etc Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lm_sensors-2.8.7-2 kernel-2.6.10-1.741-FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update the kernel to 2.6.10-* 2. run sensors -s 3. update /etc/sensors.conf for chip it8712-* and rerun sensors -s Actual Results: sensors doesn't work, doesn't show any values Expected Results: Current voltage, temperature and fan sensors values. Additional info: kernel 2.6.10 changes it87 name to it8712 for it8712 chip. Previosly all it87* were named it87. That change requires corresponding update for lm_sensors package (both for /etc/sensors.conf and for the libsensors) Quick grepping of the latest lm_sensors-2.9.0.tar.gz shows that it supports it8712 so probably the simple package update will do

Comment on attachment 110045 [details] Problem is resolved by: modprobe it87 force_it87=9191,0xd00 : # Attach of sensors module IT8712F with fixed parameters #for it87 (ISA,0xd00): modprobe it87 force_it87=9191,0xd00 #
Thanks all - changing the reference from it87 to it8712 in /etc/sensors.conf and loading the it87 module with 'force_it87=9191,0x290' worked for me with a Gigabyte GA-8PE667 Ultra board.
FC-Devel now contains lm_sensors-2.9.1 which seems to fix the problem. Read ya, Phil
