Driver `eeprom' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 1 at 1:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x50
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)

  EEPROMs are *NOT* sensors! They are data storage chips commonly
  found on memory modules (SPD), in monitors (EDID), or in some
  laptops, for example.

Driver `w83781d' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * Bus `SMBus Via Pro adapter at e800'
    Busdriver `i2c-viapro', I2C address 0x2d
    Chip `as99127f' (confidence: 6)
  * Bus `SMBus Via Pro adapter at e800'

  * Bus `SMBus Via Pro adapter at e800'

Driver `via686a' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * ISA bus, undetermined address (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
    Chip `VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors' (confidence: 9)
