Hi,
I have installed lm-sensors package after enabling i2c support in my 2.6.15 gentoo-sources. The chip has been identified as adm1032 and the driver is lm90. I have loaded all the recommended modules: lm90, i2c-i801 and eeprom. However when I run "sensors" I only see the following:

Code:

localhost linux # sensors
adm1032-i2c-0-4c
Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 1100
M/B Temp:    +53 C  (low  =   -65 C, high =  +127 C)
CPU Temp:  +68.2 C  (low  = +66.0 C, high = +74.0 C)   ALARM
M/B Crit:   +127 C  (hyst =  +122 C)
CPU Crit:    +87 C  (hyst =   +82 C)


What about the fan speed and the HDD temp ??
Code:

localhost linux # lspci

Perhaps your mobo doesnt support fan speed monitoring?

For HDD temp try the hddtemp daemon with any number of front ends (ie. under GNOME you can use GNOME Sensors Applet
Code:
emerge sensors-applet


This will also allow you to monitor your CPU and MOBO temp too.

Hi,
Thanks for the response. Actually I have already downloaded hddtemp utility and it works. However I was wondering about the capability of the SMBus interface of my MoBo. I thought all the data (MoBo temp. fan speed, fan status, cpu temp and hdd temp) will be available from it.

I can anyways read the CPU temp from "/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature". I am more interested in the SMBus functions.


Any more pointers ???

cheers,

Not sure I would expect to see HDD temp coming off the mobo sensors. For the fans have another look into the i2c modules

Here's a snip from my lsmod:
Code:

bash-3.00#lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
w83627hf               30824  2
i2c_sensor              3520  1 w83627hf
i2c_isa                 2048  0
snd_seq_midi            8928  0
snd_seq_midi_event      8256  1 snd_seq_midi
snd_seq                56464  2 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event
snd_pcm_oss            55968  0
snd_mixer_oss          20800  1 snd_pcm_oss
ohci_hcd               35912  0
usblp                  12864  0
nvidia               3712296  12
i2c_viapro              9424  0
i2c_core               23184  4 w83627hf,i2c_sensor,i2c_isa,i2c_viapro


you may see your' missing isa or something.
