 Hi,
I have an Asus A8N-E motherboard which had a motherboard chipset
 fan go bad yesterday. After doing some reading I found many folks have
 had this same problem and switched successfully to Zalman passive heat
 sinks so I did the same thing today. The machine has been up for about
 4 hours with no problems. So far so good
 
My question is how can I monitor chipset temp from my my desktop to
 watch this for awhile? If I drop into BIOS I see a temperature listed
 and had to turn off boot time warnings about the chipset fan going to
 slow so it seems the BIOS knows what's going on.
 
Is there a way for me to do this in Gnome?
 
 Thanks in advance,
 Mark

Try sys-apps/lm_sensors and gnome-extra/hardware-monitor . You'll find more

 emerge lm_sensors ;
 there's probably some plugin for gdesklets too, dunno if there's
 something for the panel


Thanks. I'll go read about that.

Again, thanks.

Christoph,
  OK, it's up and running at least in a terminal:

lightning ~ # sensors
k8temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
Core0 Temp:
+43°C

it8712-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
VCore 1:   +1.39 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
VCore 2:   +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
+3.3V: +3.20 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
+5V:   +4.81 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.85 V)
+12V: +12.16 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max = +16.32 V)
-12V:  -5.15 V  (min = -27.36 V, max =  +3.93 V)
-5V:  -13.64 V  (min = -13.64 V, max =  +4.03 V)   ALARM
Stdby: +4.87 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.85 V)
VBat:  +3.09 V
fan1: 1548 RPM  (min =0 RPM, div = 8)
fan2:0 RPM  (min =0 RPM, div = 8)
fan3:0 RPM  (min =0 RPM, div = 8)
M/B Temp:+40°C  (low  =-1°C, high =  +127°C)   sensor = thermistor
CPU Temp:+42°C  (low  =-1°C, high =  +127°C)   sensor = thermistor
Temp3:   +27°C  (low  =-1°C, high =  +127°C)   sensor = thermistor

lightning ~ #

  At least now I can watch the temp this way and make sure the M/B
temp doesn't get out of line with the new passive heat sink I
installed.

  Ended up that I had to do a kernel upgrade to get this working so
I'm now at 2.6.21-rc5-rt12. It had been 7 months since I'd touched the
kernel.

Thanks very much,
Mark

[gentoo-amd64] chipset temperatures?
