ASUS A7N8X and lm-sensors

[dshook]

I'm running development-sources 2.6.6-rc1 kernel on an ASUS A7N8X motherboard. I'm attempting to get sensors working with this configuration, but I'm not having much luck.

As recommended from the sensors site, everything is compiled as modules. The details of the problem are included below. The interesting thing is that mbmon does return temperature data, so I think that the problem is with lm-sensors. Does anyone have any suggestions?



sensors-detect gives the following suggestion
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-nforce2
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe asb100
modprobe w83l785ts
modprobe smbus-arp
modprobe eeprom
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/local/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----end cut here----

When lm_sensors starts, there's an immediate problem
* Loading lm_sensors modules...
* Loading i2c-nforce2... [ ok ]
* Loading asb100... [ ok ]
* Loading w83l785ts... [ ok ]
* Loading smbus-arp... [ !! ]

* Loading eeprom... [ ok ]

theres an update that adresses this very issue

[dshook]

I'm an idiot and didn't see that I have to use lm-sensors 2.8.6 with a 2.6.6 kernel.

things are working now.
