Description of problem: For current F15 including testing-updates, command 'sensors-detect' returns: "No i2c device files found.". However, a monitor device `SMSC DME1737' is present (Tyan S2865). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.38.3-15.rc1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot system. 2. Run 'sensors-detect'. Actual results: No i2c device files found. Expected results: All monitor devices are detected correctly. Additional info: Monitor detection used to work for F14 including the most recent updates.

I can confirm that this isn't hardware specific - I'm seeing it on a Dell Inspiron 1525n, also running F15. A look in the sensors-detect script tells me that that message is only ever output when sensors-detect hasn't spotted that udev is in use, nor can it find a MAKEDEV script. The relevant block of code is in "sub initialize_conf", at around line 2358 of the script - I don't understand enough about why it's not detecting udev in Fedora 15 to fix it, but I'd speculate that it's something to do with moving the runtime database from /dev/.udev to /run.

I can confirm this on a rebuild of F15 yesterday... Prior to to the rebuild, i2c worked flawlessly I also have a duplicate F15 - Both Phenom Quad Core and it was updated yesterday with the latest updates and it does not have these issues When running sensors-detect I get the following message No i2c device files found One other note, I am now seeing this k10temp-pci-00c3 when running just sensors, I never did see that before... I have added i2c-tools 3.0.2-5 which in turn added i2c-dev.conf to /etc/modprobe.d but this still results in the same error message I have also updated to the latest kernel today ... 2.6.38.3-18.fc15.x86_64 and did not resolve this
Hi, Thanks for the bug report, the problem is that the udevdb has moved to /run/udev, and sensors-detect does not check there and thus thinks F-15 is a pre udev distro. I've prepared an update for the F-15 package fixing this, I've also submitted this upstream. Regards, Hans
