Can't get adapter or algorithm?!?

[ticket]

Hi,

I'm running a 2.6.24-r8 kernel since yesterday, using gentoo sources to me precise, and also updated lm_sensors to 2.10.7.

Previously, with 2.6.18 kernel (vanillia) and sensors 2.10.4, everything was fine.

I compiled the kernel with roughly the sames options as my previous one. (maybe that's the matter ?). The same modules exists in /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/hwmon/

sensors-detect seems so work fine, the output is "usual".

But once modules are loaded (manually or by the init script), when I run sensors, i get this :

$ sensors tveeprom-i2c-0-50

ERROR: Can't get adapter or algorithm?!?

Philips -i2c-0-61

ERROR: Can't get adapter or algorithm?!?

Hauppauge IR-i2c-0-18

ERROR: Can't get adapter or algorithm?!?

I've seen some problems like that reported here, that should be solved since older kernels.

dmesg doesn't show weird things :

w83627hf: Found W83627THF chip at 0x290 w83627hf w83627hf.656: Reading VID from GPIO5

I'm pretty stuck now ....

any idea as what to look for would be nice.

In addition : my hardware is a good oldie Pentium4 HT based PC. Used to work with sensors since the glorious 2.4 i2c-patched kernels.

The string "ERROR: Can't get adapter or algorithm?!?" was last present in "sensors" version 2.10.1. So, you are not running version 2.10.7 as you claim. You can easily check this by running:

sensors --version

Upgrade to 2.10.7 and your problem will most certainly be solved.
