Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-generic
Hello.
I'm using Karmic with the latest kernel and default boot options. The "sensors" console utility doesn't show sensors information because kernel module "it87" cant load with new kernel.
After
$ sudo modprobe -v it87
insmod /lib/modules/
FATAL: Error inserting it87 (/lib/modules/
In dmesg output theese messages appeared
[ 674.364436] it87: Found IT8712F chip at 0x290, revision 5
[ 674.364505] ACPI: I/O resource it87 [0x295-0x296] conflicts with ACPI region IP__ [0x295-0x296]
[ 674.364511] ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver
$ uname -a
Linux user-desktop 2.6.31-6-generic #26-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 21 17:48:16 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
But, it works with kernel boot options - "acpi=off" or "acpi=ht".
And it works with kernel 2.6.28-15 with default boot options

I can confirm this with a DFI Lanparty nF4 SLI-D board, but it seems this is actually expected behavior and not a bug: http:// bugzilla. kernel. org/show_ bug.cgi? id=13967
If everything worked fine before, you can try to add "acpi_enforce_ resources= lax" or "acpi_enforce_ resources= no" to the kernel line of your GRUB2 entries (or add it to the defaults in /etc/default/grub). This should make lm-sensors work again.
