Keith, Make sure you have the ipmisensors and ipmi_msghandler modules installed. Check if there are any entries under /sys/class/hwmon. Check /var/log/messages, it should read something like the following after loading the ipmisensors module: May 30 14:37:54 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors - IPMI BMC sensors interface May 30 14:37:54 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: Registered IPMI 2.0 BMC over interface 0 May 30 14:37:54 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: Skipping SDR type 0xc0 May 30 14:37:54 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: Skipping SDR type 0x8 May 30 14:37:54 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 1" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 2" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 3" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 4" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 5" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 6" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 7" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 8" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 9" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 10" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 11" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fan 12" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: skipping non-threshold sensor "Fans" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: Skipping SDR type 0x8 May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: all sensors detected May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registering sensor 27: (type 0x01) (fmt=0; m=1; b=0; k1=0; k2=0; cap=0xc9; mask=0x0030) May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: sensors.conf: label temp1 "Temp 6" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: using upper critical threshold for upper limit May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registering sensor 26: (type 0x01) (fmt=0; m=1; b=0; k1=0; k2=0; cap=0xc9; mask=0x0030) May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: sensors.conf: label temp2 "Temp 5" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: using upper critical threshold for upper limit May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registering sensor 25: (type 0x01) (fmt=0; m=1; b=0; k1=0; k2=0; cap=0xc9; mask=0x0030) May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: sensors.conf: label temp3 "Temp 4" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: using upper critical threshold for upper limit May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registering sensor 24: (type 0x01) (fmt=0; m=1; b=0; k1=0; k2=0; cap=0xc9; mask=0x0030) May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: sensors.conf: label temp4 "Temp 3" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: using upper critical threshold for upper limit May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registering sensor 23: (type 0x01) (fmt=0; m=1; b=0; k1=0; k2=0; cap=0xc9; mask=0x0030) May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: sensors.conf: label temp5 "Temp 2" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: using upper critical threshold for upper limit May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registering sensor 22: (type 0x01) (fmt=0; m=1; b=0; k1=0; k2=0; cap=0xc9; mask=0x0030) May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: sensors.conf: label temp6 "Temp 1" May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: using upper critical threshold for upper limit May 30 14:37:55 clim1 kernel: ipmisensors: registered 6 temp, 0 volt, 0 current, 0 fan sensors Running sensors works fine for me: clim1:~# sensors bmc-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter temp1: +0.0?C (high = +7?C, hyst = +0?C) temp2: +44.0?C (high = +6?C, hyst = +0?C) temp3: +40.0?C (high = +6?C, hyst = +0?C) temp4: +31.0?C (high = +10?C, hyst = +0?C) temp5: +0.0?C (high = +10?C, hyst = +0?C) temp6: +18.0?C (high = +4?C, hyst = +0?C) ...juerg On 5/30/07, Keith Romberg <romberg at ucar.edu> wrote: > No one has any experience with these board or the sensors on it?
