AMD Phnom II x3 CPU temp in ubuntu

[bruno9779]

I have had this CPU for almost 2 months already and works great.

The only problem is that i cannot get CPU temp in Ubuntu 9.04. I have googled wide and far, but to little avail

In the bios I can see the temp of the cpus and the alarm there works quite well, so it is more about monitoring than overheating.

I have tried to follow the instructions here
but at point 2 I get

sudo: Makefile: command not found

any idea?

thanks

for me working:

sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
sudo sensors-detect

BTW, I am not sure thouse numbers, but show temp diffrenc , anyway.

I did it already and i get

#----cut here----
# Chip drivers
# no driver for AMD K10 thermal sensors yet
#----cut here----

The links I gave on top have workarounds and howtos but they don't work for me

[bruno9779]

So, I have downloaded the module k10temp. It is a little program.

Now, I don't know what to do with it. I post its content in case anyone can help me compiling it

I managed compiling that.

It is a hassle to compile after every kernel update, but at least it works

[xcape]

could you elaborate on your solution? I can't get anywhere. I have an amd phenom II x4 925 on ubuntu 9.10.

thanks.

[cardog]

the problem is lm sensors reads the mother board sensors. yes your motherboard has a sensor underneath the cpu. amd's also have one on the chip i have a phantom x4 945 and i can see all 4 temps in windows but not sher how to do that in Ubuntu. i will let you know then you don't have to use lm sensors
