From: Rusty Lynch While initializing the adm1021 device, the driver is performing a conversion from fixed point to Celcius on values that were declaired as Celcius. On my Dell Precision 220 this results in a shutdown after a couple of minutes running. The latch simply removes the conversion. 25-akpm/drivers/i2c/chips/adm1021.c | 8 ++++---- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff -puN drivers/i2c/chips/adm1021.c~adm1021-scaling-fix drivers/i2c/chips/adm1021.c --- 25/drivers/i2c/chips/adm1021.c~adm1021-scaling-fix Tue Aug 12 17:00:44 2003 +++ 25-akpm/drivers/i2c/chips/adm1021.c Tue Aug 12 17:00:44 2003 @@ -356,13 +356,13 @@ static void adm1021_init_client(struct i { /* Initialize the adm1021 chip */ adm1021_write_value(client, ADM1021_REG_TOS_W, - TEMP_TO_REG(adm1021_INIT_TOS)); + adm1021_INIT_TOS); adm1021_write_value(client, ADM1021_REG_THYST_W, - TEMP_TO_REG(adm1021_INIT_THYST)); + adm1021_INIT_THYST); adm1021_write_value(client, ADM1021_REG_REMOTE_TOS_W, - TEMP_TO_REG(adm1021_INIT_REMOTE_TOS)); + adm1021_INIT_REMOTE_TOS); adm1021_write_value(client, ADM1021_REG_REMOTE_THYST_W, - TEMP_TO_REG(adm1021_INIT_REMOTE_THYST)); + adm1021_INIT_REMOTE_THYST); /* Enable ADC and disable suspend mode */ adm1021_write_value(client, ADM1021_REG_CONFIG_W, 0); /* Set Conversion rate to 1/sec (this can be tinkered with) */ _
