This probably is not the right lpace, but can't think of where else to ask

Has anyone implemented a /proc device or user program to interrogate the enviromental attirbutes (temp, voltage etc) that many motherboards provide via their bios's ?

Please point me in the right direction

do these guys /ever/ plan on submitting kernel patches? i used to use lm_sensors on 2.2 cause it was fairly painless - but just havn't bothered with 2.4 cause it was a pita when i tried.

i know they talked AC at some point about getting a patch in, but nothing seems to have come from it.

what a damm damm shame. we've got code that appears to work really well[1] to drive most of the hardware sensors out there - but the code is used by only a tiny fraction of linux users cause these guys /apparently/ would much rather keep themselves and their code isolated in some god forsaken CVS server rather than submit their code to Linus.

fscking shame.

it is? i don't see the sensors stuff, so you must mean just the i2c bits. Any word on whether we'll see sensors code go in to 2.4?

like i said, their code has worked well for me, but they seem intent on keeping it as obscure as possible... (i remember someone posted to l-k that they'd started a sensors project, and had code for the LM80. he wasn't at all aware of lm_sensors!).

regards,

Do a search on 'lm_sensors'.

Does this work with the latest 2.4.0-testxx kernels. It stopped working for me quite a few kernel tests ago.

lm_sensors-2.5.4 is working fine here with 2.4.0t12p7 here (MSI mobo, VIA stuff).

Try this patch against the 2.5.x series. I submitted it to them back when it broke with test8 but never checked if it made it in.
