-- Forwarded message -- From: Craig Hagerman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Jan 10, 2006 5:30 PM Subject: Re: lm_sensors package To: Lennart Sorensen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks for all the advice. I have things solved and will report on what I have done. Did an apt-get install lm-sensors and then recompiled the kernel. sensors-detect told me that it needed modules for: eeprom smbus-arp w83627hf I already had i2c stuff compiled as modules but didn't have the eeprom module. I enabled that (device drivers I2C support miscellaneous i2c chip support). I am not exactly sure where the other two are. The only thing I found that looked like smbus-arp (subus I think) said it was experimental and not recommended. Hmmm... what to do? I didn't enable that. Likewise, I am not sure where to enable the w83627hf modules, but under device drivers Harware Monitoring Support there are 5 Winbond modules that sound similar. I built all of them as modules. Later I did: modprobe eeprom modprobe w83627hf and both worked! (I was expecting the later to fail, but apparently one of those winbond modules IS the right one.) And not sensors does give me a report: $ sensors w83627thf-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter VCore: +1.50 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +3.84 V) +12V: +11.43 V (min = +8.03 V, max = +0.00 V) +3.3V: +3.26 V (min = +1.54 V, max = +0.45 V) +5V: +4.99 V (min = +3.41 V, max = +4.19 V) -12V: -14.91 V (min = -14.91 V, max = -14.91 V) V5SB: +5.00 V (min = +1.83 V, max = +0.00 V) VBat: +0.21 V (min = +3.84 V, max = +0.27 V) fan1:0 RPM (min = 135 RPM, div = 1) CPU Fan: 2205 RPM (min = -1 RPM, div = 4) fan3:0 RPM (min = 79411 RPM, div = 1) M/B Temp:+30 C (high =+2 C, hyst =+8 C) sensor = thermistor CPU Temp: +41.5 C (high = +80 C, hyst = +75 C) sensor = thermistor temp3: +20.0 C (high = +80 C, hyst = +75 C) sensor = thermistor vid: +0.300 V (VRM Version 8.2) alarms: beep_enable: Sound alarm enabled

With module-init-tools you put the aliases and options into a file in the /etc/modprobe.d/ directory. You can create your own file in there and it should be read in the boot. The format is almost the same as with modutils, but have a look at man modprobe.conf to be sure. Angus Simo -- :r ~/.signature signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I have tried using different sources in my source.list to no avail. I used to have this package installed on a previous debian amd64 installation. Anyone know what it up with this? Do I have to download the source and compile it myself now? Craig Try lm-sensors with a dash instead of underscore. Also you might want to play around with apt-cache search. For example apt-cache search sensors will give you what you want. For more details you can use apt-cache show lm-sensors.

You could try replacing the underscore character with a hyphen. Glad I'm not the only one does that. Whilst I'm on the subject though; I found the correct modules to modprobe (i2c-isa, eeprom and w83697hf) I put a stanza in the /etc/modutils/i2c after the alias char-major line I ran update-modules as root I found the module names added to /etc/modules.conf So why do I keep having to modprobe them after every reboot?

Hello. So why do I keep having to modprobe them after every reboot? You have to add the modules' name to /etc/modules to have them loaded at boot. Best, Gilles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: lm_sensors package
Thanks for the help, Jo and Gilles. I think I had misunderstood the role of modules.conf, which sets up aliases and provides support in the form of parameters etc when modules are loaded. I still have to put their names into /etc/modules to have them loaded at boot, yes? Man update-modules suggests the command is obsolete I had done all that sensors-detect stuff and got some figures up in ksensors. I'm slightly puzzled that the cpu temp starts up from about 51 degrees when the screen is blank (computer left running) and then cools down to 39 degrees when I am working. Not that watching me type is much of a stretch for an AMD64 3400! I'm also suspicious of fans that return speeds of 10,000 rpm; I thought they were closer to having a top speed of 3 000 to 5 000 rpm.

The A8N-E uses the it8712 chip for hardware monitoring, you'll need these kernel options in order to access it: CONFIG_I2C=m CONFIG_I2C_ISA=m CONFIG_HWMON=m CONFIG_HWMON_VID=m CONFIG_SENSORS_IT87=m 'modprobe it87' should load the correct modules, then sensors should autodetect the chip.
