[lm-sensors] on a "via686a-*" sensors reports always the same temperature

[Pierre Bauduin]

Hi there,

I'm having problems with sensors on a machine based on a Fujitsu-Siemens MSI
MS-6340 motherboard.

The sensors chipset is chip "via686a-*"

The munin plugins always report the same temperatures:
[pbn at akagi] /home/pbn/Documents/other>munin-run sensors_temp
temp1.value 23.2
temp2.value 23.2
temp3.value 146.2

Obviously the temp3.value is bogus, so I added "ignore temp3" in
/etc/sensors3.conf. Then I get:
[pbn at akagi] /home/pbn/Documents/other>munin-run sensors_temp
temp1.value 23.2
temp2.value 23.2

Not surprisingly, the sensors_temp munin plugins calls the sensors command.
Here is the output of the sensors command:
[pbn at akagi] /home/pbn/Documents/other>sensors
via686a-isa-6000
Adapter: ISA adapter
CPU core:    +3.10 V  (min =  +3.00 V, max =  +1.57 V)
+2.5V:       +3.00 V  (min =  +3.10 V, max =  +3.10 V)
I/O:         +4.13 V  (min =  +4.13 V, max =  +4.12 V)
+5V:         +6.44 V  (min =  +6.44 V, max =  +6.44 V)
+12V:       +15.60 V  (min = +15.60 V, max = +15.12 V)
CPU Fan:       0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM, div = 2)
P/S Fan:    5672 RPM  (min =    0 RPM, div = 2)
SYS Temp:    +23.2 °C  (high = +146.2 °C, hyst = +146.2 °C)
CPU Temp:    +23.2 °C  (high = +125.2 °C, hyst = +146.2 °C)
SBr Temp:   +146.2 °C  (high = +146.2 °C, hyst = +146.2 °C)
[pbn at akagi] /home/pbn/Documents/other>

So ... everything in sensors' output always has the same value... ouch !

... perhaps did I do something wrong ?
... perhaps did I forget somethin ?

Thank you,
