sensors3.conf macbookpro 3,1

hi,

I am looking for a /etc/sensors3.conf file for the macbook pro 3,1. I found one for 4 & 5 macbook models, but the fans don't seem to match up.

The main reason I am looking for this conf file is the error outputted from the sensors command:
error: can't get value of subfeature temp1_input: I/O error

Will updating the sensors3.conf file fix this? or, is this a different problem?

Please help.

I have a MacBook3,1. My fans (sensors) seem to work.

Do you have applesmc module built and loaded? IIRC this is what does the hardware sensors.

yes, i do.

so, you don't get the below error when you run sensors?
error: can't get value of subfeature temp1_input: I/O error

may I see your kernel .config? Also, what steps did you take for lm_sensors?

Hi,

I just used the sensors-detect script and everything worked fine.

I was running 2.6.35-tuxonice I am now running 2.6.37-rc2 with a scheduler patch that makes things run nicely.

I can certainly give you my config. Is it acceptable to include it right into a forum post?

yes, please.

I just tried to post my kernel config, but it was truncated due to length.

as far as for sensors, i just ran sensors-detect and wrote out the config.

please use pastebin or a similiar service for your .config file.

also, does pwmconfig (in bash) work for you?

thank you
