Sensors and sis5595.o

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With all the discussion a few days ago about lm-sensors and all I thought I'd have a go at it myself. I was successful in getting one type of system to work and felt pretty smug about it. Now in trying to get the sensors to register on a second system I am not all that successful.

Scanning for the sensors seems to indicate the presence of a SIS5595 and probably a SIS950, which would make sense as it is a SIS based MB.

Probing for `Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595'
 Trying general detect... Success!
   (confidence 9, driver `sis5595')
Probing for `ITE IT8705F / IT8712F / SiS 950'
 Trying address 0x0290... Success!
   (confidence 8, driver `it87')

The it87 module loads ok but does not seem to show any sensor data and the SIS5595 module does not seem to load.

Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

[root@leila root]# dmesg

sis5595.o: SIS5595 not detected, module not inserted.

A little knowledge may be dangerous. I did some research and found out where to look for the 5595 sensor data. Apparently all 0xff would indicate no data but that does not seem to be the case.

Does this mean that I need to get the sis5595.o source and remove the 630 blocking or am I misinterpreting this somewhere along the way.

Kind regards,

Mike
