Description of problem: CentOS 5.3 x64 (xen kernel) install on an Asus P5Q motherboard - 'official' lm_sensors won't work with the onboard W83667hg sensors chip. (CentOS guys suggested I report a bug here and there). yum install lm_sensors (2.10.7) followed by sensors-detect = no sensors found. Running the latest 'sensors-detect' script from lm-sensors.org detects the chip correctly: Found `Winbond W83667HG Super IO Sensors' Success! (address 0x290, driver `w83627ehf') but lm_sensors service will not start with the standard driver. Installed kmod-w83627ehf-xen driver from elrepo.org, and lm_sensors service starts correctly. However 'sensors' output reads only: w83667hg-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter 'yum erase lm_sensors' followed by a 'make install' of lm_sensors 3.1.1 from lm-sensors.org works fine. 'sensors' output: w83667hg-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter in0: +1.35 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +1.74 V) in1: +1.74 V (min = +1.15 V, max = +0.30 V) ALARM in2: +3.28 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +2.56 V) ALARM in3: +3.25 V (min = +2.05 V, max = +1.25 V) ALARM in4: +1.67 V (min = +0.18 V, max = +1.48 V) ALARM in5: +2.04 V (min = +0.08 V, max = +0.73 V) ALARM in7: +3.38 V (min = +1.87 V, max = +3.14 V) ALARM in8: +3.28 V (min = +3.33 V, max = +2.16 V) ALARM fan1: 675 RPM (min = 1016 RPM, div = 16) ALARM fan2: 1222 RPM (min = 417 RPM, div = 16) fan3: 0 RPM (min = 10546 RPM, div = 128) ALARM fan4: 0 RPM (min = 10546 RPM, div = 128) ALARM fan5: 0 RPM (min = 10546 RPM, div = 128) ALARM temp1: +29.0°C (high = +8.0°C, hyst = +89.0°C) ALARM sensor = thermistor temp2: +22.0°C (high = +80.0°C, hyst = +75.0°C) sensor = diode temp3: +18.5°C (high = +80.0°C, hyst = +75.0°C) sensor = thermistor cpu0_vid: +0.875 V But means I am now outside RPM which I don't really want to do... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): lm_sensors 2.10.7 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. On an Asus P5Q motherboard with 5.3 x64, yum install lm_sensors 2. sensors-detect - no sensors found 3. download and run latest 'sensors-detect' script - finds w83667hg 4. lm_sensors service fails to start 5. install kmod-w83627ehf-xen driver 6. start lm_sensors service 7. 'sensors' output - chip name only, no readings 8. yum erase lm_sensors 9. download and install lm_sensors 3.1.1 10. Fully functional. Actual results: Sensors output restricted to name of chip only. Expected results: Sensor chip's outputs of fan speeds, temps, and voltages as per later lm_sensors install. Additional info:
We don't have a hardware to reproduce this issue, thus we don't plan to include it in stable release of RHEL. If you feel that this should be part of the stable release, please contact our support at redhat.com/support
