Description (last modified by khali) (diff)

Basically, even though sensors-detect finds sensors, and the modules are loaded, there are still no sensors showing.

uname -a:

Linux kuro-desktop 2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

sensors -v :

sensors version 2.10.2 with libsensors version 2.10.2

hardware:

Asus M2NPV-VM motherboard Athlon x2 3800+ EE

This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need
to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe
and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions,
unless you know what you're doing.

We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): y
Probing for PCI bus adapters...
Use driver `i2c-nforce2' for device 0000:00:0a.1: nVidia Corporation nForce4 SMBus (MCP51)

We will now try to load each adapter module in turn.
Load `i2c-nforce2' (say NO if built into your kernel)? (YES/no): y
Module loaded successfully.
If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them
scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script.

To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
Do you want to load `i2c-dev' now? (YES/no): y
Module loaded successfully.

We are now going to do the I2C/SMBus adapter probings. Some chips may
be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence
value in that case.
If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address,
you can specify that address to remain unprobed.

Next adapter: NVIDIA i2c adapter 2 at 3:00.0 (i2c-2)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): y

Next adapter: NVIDIA i2c adapter 1 at 3:00.0 (i2c-1)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): y

Next adapter: NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): y

Some chips are also accessible through the ISA I/O ports. We have to
write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe though.
Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any ISA slots!
Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (YES/no): y
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' at 0x290...       No
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J' at 0x290...     No
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79' at 0x290...       No

Probing for `Winbond W83627HF' at 0x290...                  No
Probing for `Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595'...         No
Probing for `VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors'...            No

Probing for `IPMI BMC SMIC' at 0xca8...                     No

Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. We have to write to
standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe.
Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): y
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f
Trying family `ITE'...                                      Yes

    (address 0x290, driver `it87')
Trying family `National Semiconductor'...                   No
Trying family `SMSC'...                                     No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Fintek'...                       No
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f

Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Fintek'...                       No

Some CPUs or memory controllers may also contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? (YES/no): y
AMD K8 thermal sensors...                                   Success!
    (driver `k8temp')
Intel Core family thermal sensor...                         No
Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor...                         No

Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:

Driver `eeprom' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x50
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x51

  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x53
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x54
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x55
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x56
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)
  * Bus `NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0'
    Busdriver `UNKNOWN', I2C address 0x57
    Chip `eeprom' (confidence: 6)

  EEPROMs are *NOT* sensors! They are data storage chips commonly
  found on memory modules (SPD), in monitors (EDID), or in some
  laptops, for example.

Driver `it87' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * ISA bus, address 0x290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
    Chip `ITE IT8716F Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)

Driver `k8temp' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * Chip `AMD K8 thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)

I will now generate the commands needed to load the required modules.
Just press ENTER to continue:

To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modules.conf:

#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----

To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:

#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
# modprobe unknown adapter NVIDIA i2c adapter 0 at 3:00.0
# modprobe unknown adapter NVIDIA i2c adapter 1 at 3:00.0
# modprobe unknown adapter NVIDIA i2c adapter 2 at 3:00.0
modprobe i2c-isa
# Chip drivers
modprobe eeprom
modprobe it87
# Warning: the required module k8temp is not currently installed
# on your system. For status of 2.6 kernel ports check
# http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices. If driver is built
# into the kernel, or unavailable, comment out the following line.
modprobe k8temp
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/local/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----cut here----

If you have some drivers built into your kernel, the list above will
contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones! You really
should try these commands right now to make sure everything is
working properly. Monitoring programs won't work until the needed
modules are loaded.

Do you want to overwrite /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no): y
Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/init.d/lm_sensors
for initialization at boot time.
