When I try to configure ksensors to read the k8temp sensors, I get a blank list of devices, but I seem to be able to view the output of the other sensors . When I execute sensors (part of lm_sensors) I get the following report:

Code:

localhost ~ # sensors
it8716-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
VCore:     +1.23 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
VDDR:      +3.20 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
+3.3V:     +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
+5V:       +4.78 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.85 V)
+12V:     +11.58 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max = +16.32 V)
in5:       +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
in6:       +0.00 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
5VSB:      +4.87 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +6.85 V)
VBat:      +2.98 V
fan1:     3199 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan2:        0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan3:        0 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
temp1:       +28 C  (low  =    -1 C, high =  +127 C)   sensor = diode
temp2:       +35 C  (low  =    -1 C, high =  +127 C)   sensor = thermistor
temp3:        -5 C  (low  =    -1 C, high =  +127 C)   sensor = thermistor
vid:      +1.350 V

k8temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
Core0 Temp:
            +25 C
Core1 Temp:
             +37 C


My observation is that the Core 0 Temp and Core1 Temp are in a different format which may or may not confuse ksensors. Currently, I do not know enough to get to the source code to attempt to read it (eventually, that will change...). Should a bug report be sent to lm_sensors or ksensors?

Kernel: linux-2.6.19-rc6 (vanilla sources)
Gcc: gcc version 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1-r1)
Kde: kde 3.5.5 (I think)
Hardware: Asus M2N-E

any help or comments would be appreciated.

Hi,

I have the same problem. When using sensors, two temperatures are shown, but ksensors shows an empty list for k8temp. Did you find a solution?

Here's my output of sensors:

Code:

k8temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
Core0 Temp:
             +36 C
Core1 Temp:
             +38 C

ds1621-i2c-0-4c
Adapter: SMBus nForce2 adapter at 0600
temp:      +0.00 C  (low  =  +0.0 C, high =  +0.0 C)



BTW: The formatting of the two different temperatures is the same for me, so I don't think that is the problem.

Bye,
beaker

I'm not using ksensors, but ksysguard shows the k8temp reading just fine. Don't know if that is any help?

There is a patch for kensors-0.7.3 that might fix your problem:

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138593

According to the patch, it fixes two problems:

(1) ksensors can't handle multiple instances of the same type.
(2) ksensors does not validate temp sensors that don't have a configurable min or max.

I tried this on my core duo machine and it worked great.
