Sehr geehrter Herr Fischer,

I've invetigated I2C question long time ago and discovered the following issues:

- different i2c versions are incompatiple. therefore lmsensors on the one distribution may work correct, but the other distribution requires lmsensors rpm update.
I would note that it was on the old 2.4-based distributions, and probaly it is not related to modern 2.6-based distributions.

- i2c/sensors drivers on 2.4 kernels was buggy, I've crashed my testnode during my experiments.

As far as I know it is possible to use acpi for hardware monitoring: try to see on the files in the /proc/acpi directory.

Also some Intel-based hardware have an IPMI interface for the hardware monitoring. I've not tested it, but the according config options are enabled in our kernels and I believe it should work too.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen,
Vasily Averin
