[expert] lm_sensors on gigabyte ga-7zxe

2003-01-22 Thread bascule
i have succesfully got lm_sensors installed but having used gkrellm to see the 
results i need some help to interpret the results, the sensors config in 
gkrellm allows me to show four temperature settings i have labelled them as 
they are in the config dialogue and they currently read:
temp 127
temp1 65.2
temp2 41.5
temp3 26.0

i'm trying to work out what these temperatures are, i know that athlons run 
hot but i doubt its currently 127, or could it be? i'm thinking that the 65 
looks more likely but then what are the other temp readings, they are coming 
from somewhere.  this board has a via kt133a chipset and i have an athlon 
1600xp (that runs at 1.4ghz i think), i wish to keep an eye on the cpu temp 
because i have put in some soundproofing and i'm concerned as to its effect 
on airflow, (scsi drives are great but noisy!)

there are reading adjustments but i don't see how i would know how much to 
adjust them so i'm hoping someone else with this board or similar might be 
able to give me a pointer

Bascule, you probably dont want a question in answer to yours, but I never quite 
managed to get lm_sensors working. I have an abit KT7-RAID board (via c100 chipset) 
and followed the setup procedure without a problem, but never got any temps showing up 
just memory usage. Any ideas where I might be going wrong??

Afraid I have no idea what th temp is, its not fahrenheit is it? - totally daft idea 
but there you go.

Re: [expert] lm_sensors on gigabyte ga-7zxe

2003-01-23 Thread flacycads
I've done this before, on the KT7-Raid. To answer the gigabyte question,
It's virtually certain that:
temp2 41.5= CPU temps
temp3 26.0= Chassis

Don't know what the others are on that board.

You need to reboot, and look in the bios pc health section to check what the 
temps really are. If they are close to what you get on lm-sensors, then you 
know what's going on.
-

On the KT7, you need to run sensors-detect, and answer the prompts. Then 
cut/paste or somehow copy the little sections it detects and lists into 
/etc/rc.local, and /etc/modules.conf (of course file/save after editing). 
Then, Sensors will show up in gkrellm config, and you can fine tune temps to 
match what your bios actually reports them as.

If you have problems, I can send you the correct sections for the KT7-raid. 
(I'll have to hook it up, as I'm on a different box right now)

All I know is I had to edit the rc.local file too, as that's what sensors 
detect instructed. I'm certainly no expert, but I did have a long detailed 
back and forth with "linux-phased" at the Mandrake Expert help when I got the 
8.2 Power-Pack last year regarding this lm_sensors subject. We finally 
figured it out, after about 20 emails, and much hair-pulling. His procedure 
worked on 9.0 also, but maybe 9.0 and the newer lm_sensors package helped out 
on this.

yes, but it was a bit buggy -- I had to rename some stuff for it to
work. I also have one system that will spike the CPU to 100% the first
time that sensors accesses the modules. I stuck a job in cron.hourly
which restarts sensorsd if the CPU is at 100%. Every now and then I rip
CDs on that box and start getting emails from cron :-)

No luck here chaps, followed the instructions, pasted stuff (u don't seem to need to 
paste into rc.local, the sensors daemon is already running?) Anyway a service sensors 
restart followed by sensors -s then sensors (or GKRELLM or whatever) gives this 
output...

#service sensors restart

Which is cool, its all correct except for the Mr Frosty CPU and System temps ;0) Its 
not hot, but it sure aint freezing neither!

So any ideas anyone? This has been bugging me forever - its not massively important 
but its one of those things I'd really like to get working. By the way the BIOS shows 
real temps, so the sensors arent hosed.

Chuck is correct- when you run sensors detect, do the ISA.

Your generated lines should wind up looking something like this (these are 
from my KX7-333- yours will be different, but same format):

For /etc/modules:

# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
---
For /etc/rc.local:

# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-viapro
# modprobe unknown adapter Velleman K8000 using Bit-shift algorithm
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe eeprom
modprobe w83781d
-
All you should have to do is put them into the files, and save. Then, go into 
gkrellm and configure sensors.

Let us know what happens,
Robert Crawford

 Sometimes, a chip is available both through the ISA bus and an I2C bus.
 ISA bus access is faster, but you need to load an additional driver module

 I2C/SMBus (ISA/smbus)? ISA

To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:

To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to either

Re: [expert] lm_sensors on gigabyte ga-7zxe

2003-01-27 Thread Simon Naish
I'm afraid I've tried that, and still no joy. lsmod shows everything loaded that 
should be according to the results of sensors-detect and yet I get no temps. I just 
tried rmmod'ing all the listed modules and starting again. With a different outcome. I 
get a slightly different list of stuff to add (an extra module and line of code for 
modules.conf) and now when I run sensors I get absolutely no reference to temperatures 
at all, just the memory. Seems fiddling with it is just breaking it more. So has 
anyone got a definitive list of modules that does work with an ABIT KT-7 RAID mobo? 
I'd be greatful ;o)

Re: [expert] lm_sensors on gigabyte ga-7zxe

2003-01-27 Thread flacycads
Simon,
As you posted, your sensors detect output does not list the needed modules for 
/etc/rc.local. They aren't there. I quote:

#cut here
> > > # I2C adapter drivers
> > > # I2C chip drivers
> > > #cut here

On many a fresh install of Mandrake 9.0 on the KT7-RAID, all I've had to do is 
add the lines to the /etc files, as shown below. This is the "definitive " 
list that works on this board. It is what sensor-detect comes up with when 
run on the KT7 board. You don't even have to run sensors detect- just put 
these lines into the /etc files. (maybe your sensors-detect is corrupted, or 
the wrong version?? If need be, I can email you the sensors-detect I used the 
first time I got this to work)

For /etc/rc.local:

# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-viapro
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe adm1021
modprobe eeprom
modprobe via686a
-
For /etc/modules:

# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
---

Then after a shutdown/reboot, open gkrellm and the readouts will now include 
the cpu/chassis temp, and fan speed readouts.  Contrary to what's commonly 
believed, I have found you sometimes need to shut down and reboot linux when 
performing some prodedures, to completely flush out the Ram of everything. If 
you don't, sometimes things simply will not work. While far better than 
windows, linux is still not perfect in this respect.

You then press F1 to open the gkrellm config panel, go to builtins-sensors and 
make your fine-tuning of the offsets so as to match the bios readings, if you 
need to. That's all there is to it. If it isn't working on a generic 9.0 
install, you are doing something wrong, like not saving the edited /etc files 
(as root), or your lm_sensors package is somehow corrupted. If I'm not 
mistaken, the I2c stuff is compiled into the Mandrake kernel. The only other 
thing I can think of is that if you did a custom install, you somehow removed 
an obscure lm_sensors dependency. But this is very unlikely, and I don't know 
what that would be.
 
Another idea:
Go into Mandrake Control Center, Software Managment, Software Package Removal, 
alphabetical listings, and see if you really have lm_sensors 2.6.4-4mdk 
installed. If not, install it. If so, remove it, and shut down the machine. 
After reboot, reinstall the lm_sensors package, and try again.

2003-01-27 Thread flacycads
bascule is correct- I neglected to mention that little detail. However, I'm 
more concerned that his sensors-detect apparently isn't listing the required 
modules for his board, so that's why I suggested just using mine for the KT7, 
as I know for a fact they do work, and on a fresh install all you need to do 
is copy them in.

I'm determined to help get Simon's sensors working, as I haven't forgotten how 
frustrating it was for me, and how the Mandrake Soft expert spent 3 weeks 
helping me figure it out. Let's not give up on this.

Simon- when you enter the gkrellm config panel, and click on builtins, is 
there a listing for sensors?

Re: [expert] lm_sensors on gigabyte ga-7zxe

2003-01-28 Thread Simon Naish
Flacycads, chees mate. I'm at work so I cant try this, but I never got this line 
ever...

 modprobe via686a

from doing sensors-detect. I did have a sensors section in gkrellm, but not any more, 
since I tried to get clever and remove all the relevant modules and reinstall them. 
Now I get zip about temps. Yes I definitely have lm_sensors instaled, sensors-detect 
and sensors both exist. I just cant seem to get it to work - your determination to 
help me get this working is _much_ appreciated mate!!!

As for the stuff that should go in rc.local that isn't there, well thats the thing, 
thats what sensors-detect is telling me to put there - nothing, zip, null. I've 
literally copied the output from the terminal. I promise I'm as stumped as you over 
this one.

What I intend to do this evening is whack your suggested lines on my box - I'll try 
them first to see if it goes bang ;o) - then reboot and have another go. I'll let you 
know how it goes. Again thanks so much for your efforts!

Si

I'll check bascule, but right now I'm getting no temp info from just running sensors 
on the command line :(

Re: [expert] lm_sensors on gigabyte ga-7zxe SUCCESS!! ;o)

2003-01-28 Thread Simon Naish
Right, success, due entirely to flacycads. Your list of modules is spot on and 
definitely works mate. Brilliant. This is what sensors at the CLI now reports

$ sensors
eeprom-i2c-0-50
Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000
Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter
Memory type:SDRAM DIMM SPD
SDRAM Size (MB):256

eeprom-i2c-0-51
Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000
Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter
Memory type:SDRAM DIMM SPD
SDRAM Size (MB):256

via686a-isa-6000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Algorithm: ISA algorithm
CPU core:  +1.71 V  (min =  +1.98 V, max =  +2.49 V)   ALARM
+2.5V: +0.17 V  (min =  +2.24 V, max =  +2.74 V)   ALARM
I/O:   +3.20 V  (min =  +2.95 V, max =  +3.62 V)
+5V:   +4.75 V  (min =  +4.47 V, max =  +5.49 V)
+12V: +11.33 V  (min = +10.79 V, max = +13.18 V)
CPU Fan:  4623 RPM  (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2)
P/S Fan: 0 RPM  (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2)  ALARM
SYS Temp:  +25.0°C  (limit =  +45°C, hysteresis =  +40°C)
CPU Temp:  +45.4°C  (limit =  +60°C, hysteresis =  +55°C)
SBr Temp:  +24.6°C  (limit =  +65°C, hysteresis =  +60°C)

Whereas b4 I got nothing below the second memory module section, I now get all this 
data about the system. OK so it might not be quite correct yet (havent figured out the 
tuning bit yet) and doesnt seem to be able to find the system fan (the power supply 
fan doesnt send info back ) But I dont care. I've been trying to get this since mdk 
8.0 . The magic missing bits were these two lines in /etc/modules (or /etc/rc.local)

modprobe i2c-isa
modprobe via686a


for some reason - probably to do with some other hardware or module getting in the 
way, sensors-detect never ever suggested these bits to me.Still I dont care now. Any 
ideas how to make sense of this lot?  /etc/sensors.conf yeah? Anyone got an example, 
I've had a look, and ninety percent seems irrelevant to my mobo, or am I just being 
overly hopeful??

Again thanks flacycads, much appreciated.

2003-01-28 Thread flacycads
Simon,
Great news! I'd like to take full credit, but I only solved it thanks to 
Richard (Linux-Phased), the Mandrake Soft expert who went beyond the call of 
duty for three weeks helping me get it working. He sent me the sensors-detect 
version that worked. I too, have not been able to get the system fan to show 
up, but don't care too much, as I can see the cpu temps and fan speed, and 
the voltages.

I still don't know why sensors-detect didn't list those modules for you. It's 
a real mystery. Anyway, glad I could be of some help.
