There are two separate issues here, which you are apparently mixing. * The SiS south bridge itself doesn't include any sensors. It implements an SMBus master. You need to get this one to work first. You say that Linus loads the i2c-sis96x driver, which may or may not mean that it works (SiS chips are very odd to identify, as can be seen with FanSpeed too.) So, first of all, please do: modprobe i2c-dev i2cdetect -l And see if there's an SMBus listed for the SiS chip. If it is, you can additionally run i2cdetect on it to see if devices connected to the bus are seen. * The sensor chip itself is, in your case, connected to the SMBus. You need a separate driver for it. This is not the right list to discuss this though, please use the lm-sensors list instead. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ i2c mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/i2c
