Has anyone got a good /etc/sensors.conf for this motherboard? I'm having trouble getting the lm_sensors reported values to match with the BIOS readings.

I had some success with the new asb100 driver in lm_sensors2. It was written today apparently, and is only in CVS at this stage. I use this instead of w83781d.o and duplicate the as99127f-* section with 'chip "asb100-*"' in /etc/sensors.conf.

Now I seem to get the right temperatures in temp3 and temp4 readings, which is good. Match the readings from Asus Probe in Windows, anyway.

Although I have noticed that Asus Probe readings are different from the BIOS readings by a few degrees C, and also swapped around - M/B should be CPU and vice versa.

That driver (asb100) is still under heavy development, so nothing is guaranteed...

I have the same board. The Problem is that ASUS doesn't give any detailed specification of the ASB100/Bach-Chip, so the lmsensors-developers had to figure out. default-config should work except this 3rd-temperature sensor (that constantly shows 14°C for me 8) ).

Also some fans send a wrong tachometer-signal (Verax is well known for this problem) I have readings of about 21000 RPM -- which of yourse is impossible.

Yeah, I've been in contact with Mark Hoffman who is working on the asb100 driver. The default as99127f driver didn't work for me at all - I was getting around 50 - 80C for temp2, although temp1 seemed reasonable. temp3 was stuck at 14C too.

The asb100 driver, however, gives CPU and M/B temps that match Asus Probe, but still don't quite match my BIOS. I'm watercooled so we're talking around 24C for both.

This is what I used. I don't know what temp1 and temp3 are supposed to be exactly.

diffs:
Code:
# for at least Asus A7V133/133-C

-    compute temp2 @*2.0, @/2.0
+#   compute temp2 @*2.0, @/2.0
+    compute temp2 @*1.5, @/1.5
    compute temp3 @*2.0, @/2.0


Code:
chip "as99127f-*"

# Same as above for w83782d except that in5 and in6 negative voltages
# are computed as in the w83781d.
# Asus won't release a datasheet so this is guesswork.
# New in5 and temp2 calculations courtesy Guntram Blohm.
