Description of problem: I started seeing on a console the following complaints from lm_sensors startup script: Starting lm_sensors: Driver 'w83627hf' needs updating - please use bus_type methods Or this is really a kernel module problem as this shows after a modprobe invocation? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lm_sensors-2.9.1-6 How reproducible: every time when starting lm_sensors
That sounds very much like a kernel module problem, so i'm reassigning it to kernel. Read ya, Phil

it's purely informational (and only of interest to developers). I've sent a patch upstream to lower the level of this printk.
actually, it is indicative of a problem. The kernel I'm building right now (2.6.15-1.1969_FC5) will have some extra debugging enabled. Can you grab it from http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/devel/ (It'll be there in an hour or so), and then paste the output of dmesg here please ?
Created attachment 124864 [details] dmesg for 2.6.15-1.1969_FC5 While booting 2.6.15-1.1969_FC5 I do not see that complaint from lm_sensors.
I haven't upgraded to 1969 yet but it no longer appears with kernel 1955 either. lm_sensors-2.9.2-1 Althought the initscript reports "Starting lm_sensors" twice on the same line. lm_sensors seems to be functioning in this configuration.
ok, the driver was updated for rc4, so this problem should be fixed for good.
