Linux query:

'sensors_detect' only finds an LM75 chip.
Is there another chip (possibly unsupported by lm_sensors)
on the board? Only one (poorly scaled) temperature sensor is
available via the LM75, no voltages, fan speeds, etc.

Couldn't find any specific info on the ASUS site (what else is new?).

Thanks for any info.
 
Yes there are other sensors. Windows has no issue finding them using
Motherboard Monitor. Good luck trying Linux on such a new Motherboard. Can
you even get LAN and SATA drivers under Linux for the 875 chipset?

Taking the adive of some disk folks I know in my area (Seagate, Maxtor),
I didn't purchase any SATA drives (too many bugs).
As for the onboard LAN, the latest e1000 driver from Intel
works fine (but only in 'noapic' mode).
Does MBM tell you which chipsets it is dealing with?
 
Here is the info from MBM:

Thanks.
There is support and it's now working!!
Another module ('i2c-isa') had to be loaded in addition to 'w83627hf'.
A few measurements I haven't a clue about.
