monitoring temps of cpu...

[tscolari]

I need some help here, the summer is coming in my contry and i cant let my cpu burn...
Im trying to get the temps but without sucess...
I did a emerge lm-sensors, okay.
them i did a sensors-detect, but it tells a lot of errors...
im using a nforce2 chipset motherboard.

i got erros like these:

Next adapter: SMBus nForce2 adapter at 5040 (Algorithm unavailable)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):
Client found at address 0x08

[Zyne]

I have an nforce m/b too, but I've never had any problems whatsoever with the temp sensors...


first thing that pops up in my head: did you enable i2c in the kernel config?

Here's what I get when I do grep -i i2c /user/src/linux/.config

[tscolari]

my .config is almost equal yours
just this line is not setted:

CONFIG_I2C_SENSOR=y

i tryed to find it in the menuconfig but im afraid there is no such option (2.6), when i setted it to y manually the kernel changed it back to not set
