Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
So, stating the obvious:
# Generated by sensors-detect on Sat Mar 25 11:54:08 2006
# I2C adapter drivers
i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
# no driver for SMSC 47M15x/192 Super IO Fan Sensors yet
I guess my machine is too new to have lm-sensors work correctly?
MSI MS-7184 motherboard.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ processor.
Northbridge: ATI RS482 and Southbridge: ATI SB400 chipset.
1 GB Ramm
How often are drivers released?
Thanks,

Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
I used this guide (for 64-bit Dapper) and it worked fine, until the reboot stage. Now sensors-detect can't find anything again!
Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
On my new system, an AMD64 dapper, sensors are not detected, unfortunately. Does anyone on amd64 have any ideas how to get this working?
Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
Tonight I downloaded the unofficial AMD-64 version of lm-sensors from debian here.
After I installed it, Dapper's update thingy told me there was a new version available, which I installed.
Then I went back through the sensor setup shown at the top of this thread.
Voila! $sensors:
w83627ehf-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
Case Fan: 0 RPM (min = 1205 RPM, div = 32)
CPU Fan: 3183 RPM (min = 1704 RPM, div = 8)
fan3: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 32)
fan4: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 4)
Sys Temp: +27°C (high = +45°C, hyst = +40°C)
CPU Temp: +33.0°C (high = +45.0°C, hyst = +40.0°C)
temp3: -48.0°C (high = +127.0°C, hyst = +127.0°C)

Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
Ok, I have a fun one:
I installed all the good stuff; works like a charm:
Code:
it8712-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
VCore 1: +1.39 V (min = +1.42 V, max = +1.57 V) ALARM
VCore 2: +2.58 V (min = +2.40 V, max = +2.61 V)
+3.3V: +6.62 V (min = +3.14 V, max = +3.46 V) ALARM
+5V: +4.87 V (min = +4.76 V, max = +5.24 V)
+12V: +12.29 V (min = +11.39 V, max = +12.61 V)
-12V: -11.77 V (min = -12.63 V, max = -11.41 V) ALARM
-5V: -1.86 V (min = -5.26 V, max = -4.77 V) ALARM
Stdby: +2.10 V (min = +4.76 V, max = +5.24 V) ALARM
VBat: +4.08 V
fan1: 4560 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 8)
fan2: 0 RPM (min = 3013 RPM, div = 8)
fan3: 1638 RPM (min = 3013 RPM, div = 8) ALARM
M/B Temp: +25°C (low = +15°C, high = +40°C) sensor = thermistor
CPU Temp: +35°C (low = +15°C, high = +45°C) sensor = thermistor
Temp3: +3°C (low = +15°C, high = +45°C) sensor = diode
NOW, problem is when the cpu modules load:
Code:
#----cut here for sensor probing----
# I2C adapter drivers
# modprobe unknown adapter bt878 #0 [sw]
it87
eeprom
i2c-isa
i2c-nforce2
# I2C chip drivers
#----cut here----
(reversed as per the howto)
I get my mobo speaker beeping at me CONSTANTLY.
Like, one continuous beep that starts when the module is loaded (not sure which one, but one of the above), and does not end until I power down.
Un-usable.
Any help is appreicated; possibly disabling the alarm? or even disable linux's access to that speaker altogether (less than optimal)
Thanks!
Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
I use lm_sensors on dapper beta 2, and it only detects my cpu and case fans. It won't detect the CPU temp or case temp or anything like that. Speedfan can detect them just fine under windows. Is there any other program that maybe can control fan speeds automatically like speedfan?
Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
hey a noob question on the very first post oyou said mkdev.sh where is that script exactly?

I've just compiled a new kernel, and I can't found anything related to smbus-arp. My motherboard is an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe, with a nForce2 chipset.
Any help?
I have the same mainboard, and I believe I had lm-sensors working on it with Mandrake 10.2, then Mandriva, both with 2.6 series kernels. I don't remember having any problems getting the sensors to work.
What is this smbus-arp module?
(A while ago, I had lm-sensors working with mandrake on an Abit BP6.)
Beef.
Re: HOW TO: Install and configure lm-sensors
Am I the only one that thinks step 1 is almost useless since it doesn't include steps 2-8?
Why do they bother with an installation program that doesn't configure anything?
Is it really worth all this for some geeky stuff on your desktop?
I lost complete interest in any sensors desktop stuff after seeing what a PITA this required package is.
Well at least you won't ever find yourself entering "sudo dpkg-reconfigure lm-sensors"
