Subject: LM85 problems with 2.6.16.x

Hello

I am using a Tyan S4882 motherboard with 4 CPU's that has a LM85 sensor chip
which reports the following message during boot:


.
.
ipmi device interface
Enabling SMBus multiplexing for Tyan S4882
lm85 0-002e: Client (0,0x2e) config is locked.
lm85 0-002e: Client (0,0x2e) is not ready.
lm85 0-002e: Client (0,0x2e) VxI mode is set. Please report this to the lm85 maintainer.

Looking at /var/log/messages I also can see multiple entries of:

i2c_adapter i2c-0: SMBus collision!

Any idea what is causing this and what I can do to remove the problem?

Who is the lm85 maintainer? In MAINTANERS I only found LM80 and LM83. In
lm85.c there is Justin Thiessen <[email protected]> in the
Copyright, but failed to contact him.

Thanks,
Holger
