Hi Florian, Not sure of your familiar w/ FreeIPMI, just to double check, you attempted to flush, and then re-run ipmi-sensors again?
I've pinged the other FreeIPMI develoeprs to throw in some of their ideas. But some of mine: 1) Could you try running bmc-info? Since that doesn't require an SDR cache, it will remove at least 1 variable from this trouble-shooting. 2) It looks like the default addresses were utilized on the 2600, so maybe it's worth a shot trying them on the 2800/2900: > ipmi-sensors --no-probing -D KCS --driver-address=0xCA2 --register- spacing 1 and for kicks try register spacing of 4 too > ipmi-sensors --no-probing -D KCS --driver-address=0xCA2 --register- spacing 4 in fact it may be worth trying a few combinations, including 0xCA8 in there too b/c that is the probed driver address. 3) I re-wrote the SDR cache debugging/stableness code in 0.4.X. It includes some extra debugging. It may be worthwhile trying to install a newer version to get extra info.
