Greetings-
I'm trying to get lm-sensors to work, mainly to monitor the CPU
temperature in my machine. I know the chip is an lm78, as reported by the
following output from sensors-detect:
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78'
Trying address 0x0290... Success!
(confidence 7, driver `lm78')
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J'
Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79'
Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `Winbond W83781D'
Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `Winbond W83782D'
Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `Winbond W83627HF'
Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `Winbond W83697HF'
Trying address 0x0290... Failed!
Probing for `Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595'
Trying general detect... Failed!
Probing for `VIA Technologies VT 82C686 Integrated Sensors'
Trying general detect... Failed!
Probing for `ITE IT8705F / IT8712F / SiS 950'
Trying address 0x0290... Success!
(confidence 7, driver `it87')
But trying to load the modules turns out to be impossible:
joehill:~# modprobe i2c-isa
modprobe: Can't locate module i2c-isa
joehill:~# modprobe lm78
modprobe: Can't locate module lm78
And sensors doesn't see anything:
joehill:~# sensors
No sensors found!
How do I get this working? I did select I2C support in the kernel (as
modules), and have them loaded:
joehill:~# lsmod
