Up to kernel 2.6.30, I could find w83627ehf.ko module which is the module for a sensor chip in lm_sensors, however, since 2.6.31, I cannot find it. Where is it hidden or is it integrated into another module?

Thanks in advance.

What do you want to hear?

Code:
[stell @ parallax:~]% grep W83627EHF /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_SENSORS_W83627EHF=m


menuconfig -> Device Driver -> Hardware Monitoring Support -> Winbond W83627EHF

Thanks for your reply.
Code:
tetsuji@maverick /usr/src/linux $ grep W83627EHF .config
CONFIG_SENSORS_W83627EHF=m

(oh!) and
Code:

# modprobe w83627ehf
FATAL: Error inserting w83627ehf (/lib/modules/2.6.32.2-maverick/kernel/drivers/hwmon/w83627ehf.ko): Device or resource busy


What should I do?

This.

In particular:

If you have an Asus motherboard, chances are good there is an ACPI interface to read your sensors, which is safe, and no more sensors.conf tweaking needed for conversion formulas! Make sure you have the asus_atk0110 driver enabled in your kernel configuration to use this. You will also need lm-sensors version 3.1.0 or later.


Which works for me.

Thanks, but it still doesn't work..... sigh.

Actually my mobo is an asus G31 mobo, and I manually changed .config so asus_atk0110=y, but no changes. I also upgraded lm_sensors to 3.1.1, but in vain.....

Thanks.

dmesg says

Code:
[   25.151896] w83627ehf: Found W83627DHG chip at 0x290
[   25.151925] ACPI: I/O resource w83627ehf [0x295-0x296] conflicts with ACPI region HWRE [0x290-0x299]
[   25.151927] ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use it instead of the native driver


so what????

TIA

Read the link I gave you.

If you want to restore the old behaviour (which might be dangerous) add: "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" to the kernel cmdline when booting (or add it in grub.conf to make this permanent).

In other words, You won't be using that sensor anymore. You'll either get the same info out of the acpi interface, or you just won't be able to use it for the reasons stated in that post unless you use hacky methods to revert to the old behavior.

hmmm "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" doesn't work, either..... As Ormaaj says, I won't use that sensor any longer...

To Ormaaj, Where is that info written?

Given that the "old behavior" has worked quite well for me for several years, I don't see any reason for not using the "hacky methods" to allow use of my hardware sensors. I have two Asus boards and one from MSI which require the "hack."

Has anyone seen any trouble caused by the ACPI/sensors conflicts?
