It is possible that all temperatures are correct and just not measuring the same thing. The coretemp driver reports the CPU core temperature, which is presumably the hottest point of the CPU. The abituguru driver, OTOH, may be reporting the temperature in the CPU socket, or the temperature of a thermal diode close to the CPU or inside the CPU but not in the core. It is expected that the reported temperature is lower. > I did not find the coretemp-isa-* in the sensors.conf file. Do you > know where the computes for this module are setup? No computes are needed for the coretemp, the temperatures are reported directly by the driver. -- Jean Delvare
