That's really likely to be a kernel issue, that said keeping the problem on the lm-sensors package is probably the best if you want to see some progress there. When we have a better idea about the problem, we can reassign it. > Below you find the output of sensors-detect of the old and the new kernel.

It's not there in kernel 2.6.32 as it has been switched to libata (/dev/sda instead of /dev/hda), but pata_via replaces it instead. > am unsure if that is a problem.

What could be the problem is that the BIOS of your motherboard accesses the sensors for example to control the speed of the CPU fan, and recent version of the i2c-viapro modules forbids that (using informations from ACPI) to avoid lock-up issues. The best way to start would be to load the i2c-viapro module in both 2.6.26 and 2.6.32 kernels and look at the reported kernel messages. The best is to first remove the module and then load it again so that the messages are not lost in the middle of the others. So in short, can you send me the output of the following command on both kernels? rmmod i2c-viapro ; modprobe i2c-viapro ; dmesg | grep tail Aurelien -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
