Hi I have a A7V8X-X motherboard and I'm running kernel 2.4.21. I downloaded and tried the lm sensors 2.8.0. I get the same wrong results as I saw somebody had reported already. However I played a bit with the temp_type setting of it87. I'm ignoring Temp3: If it do: modprobe it87 temp_type=0x1c or modprobe it87 temp_type=0x38 I get: sensors eeprom-i2c-0-50 Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at e800 Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter Memory type: DDR SDRAM DIMM SPD Memory size (MB): 256 it87-isa-0290 Adapter: ISA adapter Algorithm: ISA algorithm VCore 1: +1.68 V (min = +1.53 V, max = +1.87 V) VCore 2: +0.00 V (min = +2.25 V, max = +2.75 V) ALARM +3.3V: +6.58 V (min = +2.96 V, max = +3.60 V) ALARM +5V: +4.77 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.48 V) +12V: +12.32 V (min = +11.36 V, max = +13.80 V) -12V: -27.36 V (min = -15.86 V, max = -13.40 V) ALARM -5V: -13.64 V (min = -10.13 V, max = -9.44 V) ALARM Stdby: +4.99 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.48 V) VBat: +4.08 V fan1: 2800 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) ALARM fan2: 0 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) ALARM fan3: 0 RPM (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2) ALARM Temp1/MB: +49?C (min = +20?C, max = +60?C) Temp2/CPU: +30?C (min = +20?C, max = +60?C) Temp3: +127?C (min = +20?C, max = +60?C) BIOS reports that my MB temperature is about 30C and that the CPU is about 59C. So here is actually looks like Temp1 and Temp2 should be swapped. I don't know if this makes sense though. But when I tested I first checked with sensors some times and I saw it gave a stable temperature. Then I ran glxgears as this uses 100% cpu more or less. I could see that the temperature rose. Then I stopped it and opened the window as it was only 14C outside. I could now see that the Temperature was dropping again. After some time I saw that Temp2 dropped a couple of degrees too which makes sense as I hace also seen in the BIOS that the MB temp drops a bit when I open the window and air out well. So what is looks like is that the temperature are swappend and that the CPU temperature needs adjustment to fit with the BIOS readings. The fan1 speed looks right to me. I think the Voltage readings are correct too except for the +3.3V. Hope this helps. If there is anything I can do to give you more information please let me know. I would like to be able to monitor the CPU temp on my computer form linux :-) Keep up the good work. Preben Randhol
