ACPI: I/O resource w83627ehf [0x295-0x296] conflicts with ACPI region HWRE [0x290-0x299]

re-assigning to linux, this is the kernel module at fault here

btw, is this still an issue for you?

I still have the problem, although the error message has changed a bit

switching back to new, updated title

having this problem in Karmic alpha 6 with the latest kernel installed.

Confirmed, Importance Low.
Added Redhat bug watch.
Upstream Linux has it marked as "won't fix", seems like a bios bug?
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13571

according to the redhat bug report above there is an ACPI driver that will access these sensors on the asus boards.

'asus_atk0110'

kernel module loads fine and the sensors show up in /sys/class/hwmon/

However it requires lm-sensors >= 3.1.0, Karmic is currently at 3.0.2

Should I open a bug to port the newer versions to lm-sensors to Karmic? Or are they too nascent.

There is an open bug here re merge of 3.1 to karmic
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lm-sensors-3/+bug/336418

lm sensors 3.1 is now in Karmic.

using the asus_atk0110 driver works fine now!

However sensors-detect does not find it, so just need to manually add it to the modules file.

Terrific! Thank you.

I'm confused.... Above, Tim wrote that 3.1 is in Karmic. I run karmic, but according to both my package manager and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+package/lm-sensors ,lm-sensors is still at 3.0.2 which would explain me still getting "ACPI: I/O resource piix4_smbus [0xb00-0xb07] conflicts with ACPI region SOR1 [0xb00-0xb0f]"

oops, my bad, I must have installed the version from the eudoxos ppa in bug 336418.

Anyway the updated lm-sensors package is required to read the data from the 'asus-atk0110' driver.

Using this driver avoids the ACPI conficts for the W83627DHG chip (on asus boards) that you get when using the native drivers.

Shaved, from your error message looks like you are using a different sensor chip/driver, which is probably unrelated to all this?

Quite possibly. You comment assumes I have the faintest clue about any of this, which I assure you - I don't! All I know is that the message I get on boot up kinda looks like the one in this bug report.

Would you suggest I take my error and file a new bug on it?

Still present in Karmic beta (fully updated a few minutes ago).

Really? Mine seems to have disappeared some time over the last 2-3 days...

I still have the problem in Karmic RC.

it will not be fixed.

if you have an asus board you can use the 'asus_atk0110'

except that requires lm-sensors 3.1.1

see this bug for more details

What prevents updating lm_sensors to 3.1.1 on Karmic? Sounds like someone just lazy :)

They probably don't have time to upgrade the lm-sensors package two days before the release. But maybe someonecould set up a PPA with lm-sensors 3.1.1 in a near future?

as per the other bug I linked to above, you can find the lm-sensors 3.1.1 packages here

https://launchpad.net/~ari-tczew/+archive/ppa/+build/1166807

forgot about that one, thanks.

Problem is that the new lm-sensors package is only part of it. In my case for example I'm using snmpd for the values and snmpd is still linked against the older version of lm-sensors, therefore I don't have any way to access the values anymore.

I have a problem with my Asus P5L-MX (http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=X70d3NCzH2DE9vWH).
The asus_atk0110 driver loads without errors and I have installed lm-sensors 3.1.1 from the ppa.
No pwmconfig won't run anymore:

=====================================
$ sudo pwmconfig

I have copied over the /etc/fancontrol from Jaunty, but fancontrol prints out errors as well:

Hi! Affected here with my Asus M2N.

It worked perfectly in 9.04, and now broken in 9.10

I have understood that I have to include a PPA above to get 3.1.1 version of lm-sensors.

But, how can I get asus_atk0110 driver to work??

Confused!

Thanks,
^_Pepe_ ^

you can add acpi_enforce_resources=lax to the kernel command line to restore old behavior.

on Lucid final release and updated:

into messages.log:

 kernel: [ 23.856240] w83627ehf: Found W83627DHG chip at 0x290
 kernel: [ 23.856268] ACPI: resource w83627ehf [0x295-0x296] conflicts with ACPI region HWRE [0x290-0x299]

into Xorg.0.log:
Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)

into syslog:
kernel: [ 0.381485] ACPI Warning: Incorrect checksum in table [OEMB] - 61, should be 58 (20090903/tbutils-314)

this error is no more logged now

Confirming it is still present in Lucid (after complete upgrade from today's repositories). /var/log/messages contains the same errors. And modprobe also says "Device or resource busy".

Adding acpi_enforce_resources=lax to the kernel command line fixes the issue indeed

Latest kern.log output on natty i386 A3 updated, with kernel 2.6.38-6-generic-pae on Asus p5wdh:

w83627ehf: Found W83627DHG chip at 0x290
kernel: [ 14.412495] ACPI: resource w83627ehf [io 0x0295-0x0296] conflicts with ACPI region HWRE [io 0x290-0x299]
kernel: [ 14.412498] ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use it instead of the native driver

What is the kernel command line?

I added acpi_enforce_resources=lax somewhere, the boot config I think. Then I load w83627ehf

sudo modprobe w83627ehf

or add to /etc/modules and reboot.

Still doesn't work.

Alternatively I load asus_atk1001 with modprobe

It loads OK but still no sensors found.

Come on, I searched and followed the "bug" from 2007 and still not solved.

I have an old P5L-VM 1394 that is in danger of overheating. It's old but that's why I switched from dual boot to full time Ubuntu. It's much faster than Windows. It's also not possible to get the Asus Probe 2 to work in Wine.

I installed lm-sensors via Synaptic manager in Ubuntu (10.04)

uname -a
Linux loft 2.6.32-30-generic #59-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 1 21:30:21 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

I know it's a bug report but some easy to follow steps goes a long way. Linux is still slightly less than 1% penetration, you know.

latest news on natty i386:
- with latest 2.6.38 kernel: get this error
- with latest 2.6.39-rc4: dont get it

installed 2.6.39 rc5 generic-pae, dont get this error, seem to be fixed with latest 39 kernel

It works now after this upgrade:

Adding to above - I added the suggested Asus driver (asus_atk1001) with modprobe and to /etc/modules and rebooted - the module loaded fine as checked with:

lsmod | grep asus_atk1001

but no output from:

sensors

sensors-detect reports:

# sensors-detect revision 5946 (2011-03-23 11:54:44 +0100)

so I guess it is this board that is not working with the specified module. I reverted to the hack in the previous post to get my CPU temps back!
