I have installed lm_sensors on a dual Athlon MP2200+ Tyan motherboard. A Winbond chip is detected and this is the evidently wrong output of sensors: w83627hf-i2c-0-2c Adapter: SMBus AMD7X6 adapter at 80e0 Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter VCore 1: +1.66 V (min = +1.48 V, max = +1.80 V) VCore 2: +1.66 V (min = +1.48 V, max = +1.80 V) +3.3V: +3.29 V (min = +2.97 V, max = +3.63 V) +5V: +4.89 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.48 V) +12V: +9.42 V (min = +10.79 V, max = +13.11 V) -12V: -12.29 V (min = -13.21 V, max = -10.90 V) -5V: +0.01 V (min = -5.51 V, max = -4.51 V) V5SB: +5.38 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.48 V) VBat: +3.28 V (min = +2.70 V, max = +3.29 V) fan1: 2721 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) fan2: 2848 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) fan3: 0 RPM (min = 1500 RPM, div = 4) temp1: +67?C (limit = +60?C, hysteresis = +50?C) sensor = PII/Celeron diode temp2: +1.5?C (limit = +60?C, hysteresis = +50?C) sensor = PII/Celeron diode temp3: +3.5?C (limit = +60?C, hysteresis = +50?C) sensor = PII/Celeron diode vid: +1.65 V alarms: Chassis intrusion detection ALARM beep_enable: Sound alarm disabled What should I do? Perhaps changing from "PII/Celeron diode" according to the suggestion in /usr/share/doc/lm_sensors-2.6.3/doc/chips/w83781d sensor[1-3]: (782d/783s only) Controls the sensor type. To change to a different sensor type, for example, do 'echo 2 > sensor1'. Valid values: 1: Pentium II / Celeron diode 2: 2N3904 Transistor in a diode configuration 3435: Thermistor with Beta = 3435. Beta is a measure of sensitivity to temperature. But I haven't quite understood how. -- CLAUDIO DESTRI Claudio.Destri at mib.infn.it DIPARTIMENTO DI FISICA G.
