[Voyage-linux] [Fwd: [PATCH 01/11] hwmon: Fix negativetemperaturereadings in lm77 driver]

[Punky Tse]

Hi Beat,

I encounter the same problem right now - temperature reading all return 
zero values under high load.  And there are loads of i2c timeout 
messages in /var/log/kern.log.  Sounds like the kernel is busy to 
response i2c commands?
