How can I suppress lm_sensors alarm?

Guessing there are some unconnected pins on the sensor chip.

What would be the settings in /etc/sensors3.conf to stop alarms like
Chip smsc47m192-i2c-0-2d: 3.3V: +0.00 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +1.00 V) [ALARM]

Ran sensors-detect on Mandriva Linux 2010.0 and modified sensors3.conf
by adding the indented/# lines, and have been playing with in0 to no avail.
I have been restarting the daemon/service after each change.

/etc/sensors3.conf snippet:

chip "smsc47m192-*"

label in0 "3.3V"
label in6 "+1.5V"
label in7 "+1.8V"
label temp1 "SIO Temp"
label temp2 "CPU Temp"
label temp3 "Sys Temp"
label cpu0_vid "+1.150 V"

set in0_min -1
set in0_max 1
set in6_min 0
set in6_max 0
set in7_min 0
set in7_max 0

label temp2 "CPU Temp"
label temp3 "Sys Temp"
label cpu0_vid "+1.150 V"

set temp2_min 0
set temp2_max 50
set temp3_min 0
set temp3_max 120


label in1 "Vcore"
label in2 "+3.3V"
label in3 "+5V"
label in4 "+12V"
label in5 "VCC"

set in2_min 3.3 * 0.90
set in2_max 3.3 * 1.10

set in3_max 5.0 * 1.10
# set in4_min 12.0 * 0.90
# set in4_max 12.0 * 1.10
set in5_min 3.3 * 0.90
set in5_max 3.3 * 1.10

If the monitor point is not working, then you would in your example
enter the line in sensors3.conf

ignore in2

and you could remove all the other references to in2
