Hi, my name is Alvaro. I'm very pleased with the status of the project, it's very mature and well organized. Well done! but... i have a question: Why the Winbond chip W83782M (yes "M") is not listed? I have a Soyo Sy-6VBA-133, in the manual says W83782M, but on the web (non soyo sites) apears as a W83782D. the 'w83781d' driver works on my system, but i still have a doubt. Maybe this was only a typo from SOYO, or not? Source of the problem (the PDF manual): http://www.soyo.com.tw/dl/manuals/686/m6vba13312.pdf Here is my sensors-detect: ----------------------- X530-Windsword:~ # sensors-detect This program will help you determine which I2C/SMBus modules you need to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. You need to have i2c and lm_sensors installed before running this program. Also, you need to be `root', or at least have access to the /dev/i2c-* files, for most things. If you have patched your kernel and have some drivers built in, you can safely answer NO if asked to load some modules. In this case, things may seem a bit confusing, but they will still work. It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all(Continue reading)

Ok, I've tried this and a few other things. First of all, I can't shut
off SMI which seems really odd.
The first time a ran this sequence I got this result and the machine
did not hang:
