Linux 2.6.11.10 Hmmm... thanks for the suggestion, but this didn't work for me. It probably still needs drivers to the hardware which I haven't selected in modconf. But looking into my original problem, I finally solved it! Short explanation: 'user stupidity'... I applied the vt1211 patch, but had to edit it a little bit to make it a perfect patch for kernel 2.6.8-16 ( I like a patch that works without fuzzyness). While editing it, I accidently removed the last two lines of vt1211.c which had something to do with initializing the driver... Of course, during compilation, I didn't notice the two resulting warnings between all other compile messages. Lesson learned: always pay attention during kernel compilation. Anyway, it works, 'sensors' now reports the CPU temperature. Good thing because I'm going to migrate the system to a fanless case very soon... -- Matthijs [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
