Hello rouble, > Now, when I follow all the instructions, and reboot my box, and run > sensors I get: > > ~ #1004 > sensors > pc87360-isa-0820 > Adapter: ISA adapter > fan1: 0 RPM (min = 952 RPM, div = 8) OVERFLOW > fan2: 0 RPM (min = 952 RPM, div = 8) OVERFLOW This is a 2-channel fan speed monitoring function embedded in your Super-I/O chip. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that any fan is actually connected to it, thus the zero readings and overflow flags. BTW, you pointed out a bug in the driver (the min limit being arbitrarily set to 952 RPM, while it was most likely disabled in the first place). I will have to fix that. > what does it mean by 'Use the ddcmon and/or decode-edid.pl scripts' ? There are a few helper scripts that come with lm_sensors to decode EEPROMs better than "sensors" does. Two of these are aimed at EDID EEPROMs, which are frequently found in monitors and accessed through an I2C-compatible bus named DDC. The scripts are in prog/eeprom in the source tree, and should have been installed together with "sensors" itself. Just give a try to the one named "ddcmon" if you want the details of your monitor capabilities. > and what am I doing wrong here. Any assistance is appreciated. I don't think you're doing anything wrong. Your system is simply short of (known) hardware monitoring devices. -- Jean Delvare
