[lm-sensors] error loading coretemp module for 2.6.21.5 kernel Intel Xeon E5420 CPU

[Rutul Dave]

Hello,

I am trying to use lm-sensors (version 2.10.5) with libsensors version 2.10.5.
The kernel is patched (with the add-coretemp-driver.patch and
coretemp-add-documentation.patch) from the following locations:
http://www.hobbes.ch/statisch/linuxfiles/patches/add-coretemp-driver.patch
http://www.hobbes.ch/statisch/linuxfiles/patches/coretemp-add-documentation.patch

Attached is the /proc/cpuinfo.

When trying to load the modules, I get the following errors:

[root at localhost ~]# dmesg | grep coretemp
[   76.687618] coretemp: Unknown CPU, please report to the
lm-sensors at lm-sensors.org
[   76.687802] coretemp: Unknown CPU, please report to the

lm-sensors at lm-sensors.org
[   76.688326] coretemp: Unknown CPU, please report to the
lm-sensors at lm-sensors.org
[root at localhost ~]#

I am able to run this successful on a dual-core CPU (Intel Xeon 5130).

Can anybody suggest how to get this to work on the E5420 CPU?

thank you,

Rutul
