 |

Hi,
I'm looking for a command line utility that will allow me to get fan speed, cpu voltage and temperature readings of the motherboard.
Thank you! |

| Code: | | sudo emerge sys-apps/lm_sensors |
Don't forget to compile i2c and hwmon in your kernel.
HTH. |

Thank you! I got those modules compiled and loaded but when I run "sensors-detect", it gives me:
| Code: |
Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): YES
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f
Trying family `ITE'... Yes
Found unknown chip with ID 0x7401
Trying family `National Semiconductor'... No
Trying family `SMSC'... Yes
Found `SMSC LPC47M182 Super IO Fan Sensors'
(but not activated)
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Fintek'... No
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f
Trying family `ITE'... No
Trying family `National Semiconductor'... No
Trying family `SMSC'... No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Fintek'... No
Sorry, no sensors were detected.
Either your sensors are not supported, or they are connected to an
I2C or SMBus adapter that is not supported.

I'm using the Intel D975XBX2KR mobo. Any ideas? |

Have u built the driver for ur monitoring hardware
They r available wen u configure the kernel in
| Code: | Device Drivers ->
Hardware Monitoring Support |
U should select the appropriate one there
Also did u try running just the sensors command? |

I did that. I have compiled and loaded every single driver under Hardware Monitoring Support and it's still not finding any sensors. I tried running the sensors command but it didn't think there were any sensors. |

R u usure that ur motherboard has hardware monitoring
Try building them into the kernel instead of as modules. |

Yes, I'm sure. fanspeed works fine in Windows. |

try installing the acpi modules into the kernel... there should be some responsible for sensors. some machines work with these sensors instead of the ones in the hardware sensors category.
also try updating your dsdt if your fans aren't kicking in when they're supposed to.
cheers

it looks like i801 - it's an intel board - the Bad Axe 2 (D975XBX2KR) |

I compiled the kernel with the following ACPI options:
| Code: |
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y
CONFIG_ACPI_IBM_DOCK=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
|
but no dice!
I also emerge the latest verison of lm_sensors and it's finding a sensor called "coretemp" but I can't find that module anywhere. Any idea where to get it?
Should I add that I'm running the AMD64 distro? |

Ok, it looks like my mobo uses a Andigilog aSC7621 chip. I found a 3-rd party patch for it on the net and compiled the asc7xxx.ko module ...and loaded it too - DUH. Now when I run "sensors" it displays:
| Code: |
asc7621-i2c-0-2e
Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 3000
|
Do I need to do something in /etc/sensors.conf in order to get the actual readings? |

| If its displaying the correct output you want then no need to change anything. |

It displays the adapter names but no useful info:
| Code: |
brat / # /usr/bin/sensors
asc7621-i2c-0-2e
Adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 3000
brat / #

u need to edit /etc/sensors.conf to get the proper output.
Did u compile sensors before or after installing the driver for the chip?
If u installed it before installing the chip try reinstalling it, it may autoconfigure and make necessary changes as u have the drivers now but i am not sure of that.
U may still need to edit it manually.
:EDIT: Oh yea first try sensors-detect before all these. |

I don't really know what to edit. I found the coretemp source code and compiled it - it's still not working. |
