Description
I downloaded the latest build. Installed with 'make user' and 'make
user_install'. Running sensors-detect gives me:
#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----
To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:
#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-viapro
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe eeprom
modprobe w83627hf
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/local/bin/sensors -s # recommended
Looks fine, only loading the w83627hf module is not possible:
modprobe w83627hf:
FATAL: Module w83627hf not found.
Eeprom does work:
root@slack:~# sensors
eeprom-i2c-0-52
Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 0400
Algorithm: Unavailable from sysfs
Memory type: DDR SDRAM DIMM
Memory size (MB): 512
eeprom-i2c-0-50
Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 0400
Algorithm: Unavailable from sysfs
Memory type: DDR SDRAM DIMM
Memory size (MB): 512
How to get the w83627hf module to load on 2.6.1 (I've seen a lot of questions
about this using google but no clues how to solve it)? I'm on slack current and
would really like to get this working.
Regards
--- the w83627hf driver has not yet been ported to 2.6, sorry.
You may wish to try the w83781d driver.
