Using the "sensors" command (hp dc7100 w/ SuSE)



I've found mention of the "sensors" command (availabe in the SuSE 9.2 
distribution we use) and I thought it could be useful to monitor the 
status of our machines (in particular there is one which sometimes powers 
off spontaneously for unknown reasons).

I tried to run it, and it required to do "modprobe i2c_sensors". I did and 
now the program runs but says "no sensors found".

I also ran "sensors-detect" which did a number of tests, all failing, and
terminated with ...

Sorry, no chips were detected.
 Either your sensors are not supported, or they are
 connected to an I2C bus adapter that we do not support.


Our bunch of new machines (replacing our former Suns and Alphas) are all 
HP Compaq dc7100 CMT. We run SuSE9.2, and uname -a returns the following 
info :

Linux xxxx 2.6.8-24-smp #1 SMP Wed Oct 6 09:16:23 UTC 2004 i686 i686 
i386 GNU/Linux

I have also a long file obtained from the YAST2 "hardware info" which 
lists a lot of details, but I have no idea about how to extract 
information for the sensors.conf file, or whether the dc7100 motherboard 
is supported by "sensors".

Any clue ?
