Some systems (mainly servers) implement IPMI, a set of common interfaces <br>
through which system health data may be retrieved, amongst other things. <br>
We first try to get the information from SMBIOS. If we don't find it <br>
there, we have to read from arbitrary I/O ports to probe for such <br>
interfaces. This is normally safe. Do you want to scan for IPMI <br>
interfaces? (YES/no): <br>

So it seems the sensors aren't there, and proving the various I/O <br>
ranges causes a crash. <br>
<br>
Still it would be nice to get "ipmitool sensor" working locally. <br>

Is there a driver that I missed? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This may be a compatibility issue with ipmitools package,
the protocol <br>
is clearly compatible though. I guess you can't load the ipmi_si module? <br>
I created /dev/ipmi0 manually but it made no difference to the error <br>
displayed. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
<br>
# modprobe ipmi_si <br>
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'ipmi_si': No such device <br>

So I'm wondering if a different driver is needed. Or a patch for this one. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Having gone into the scant
manual and the Ubuntu image (along with some Googling) it seems the board
requires an SSIF driver (<code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">ipmi_smb?) which
is not in mainline since 2.6 days.</span></code></p>
