Installed lm-sensors on my RHEL5 box from the ATRPMS repo: libsensors3 i386 2.10.6-55.el5 atrpms - testing 50 k lm_sensors i386 2.10.6-55.el5 atrpms - testing 501 k But cannot seem to get it to work. Here is the sensors-detect output from the installed rpm package: [root at media ~]# sensors-detect # sensors-detect revision 5132 (2008-02-26 14:52:35 +0100) This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions, unless you know what you're doing. We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters. Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 0000:00:1f.3: Intel 82801G ICH7 We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Module `i2c-i801' already loaded. If you have undetectable or unsupported I2C/SMBus adapters, you can have them scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script. We are now going to do the I2C/SMBus adapter probings. Some chips may be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case. If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can specify that address to remain unprobed. Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at 2000 (i2c-0) Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): Client found at address 0x2e Probing for `Myson MTP008'... No Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78'... No Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J'...

No Some chips are also accessible through the ISA I/O ports. We have to write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe though.

Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `to-be-written' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 2000' Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x2e Chip `Andigilog aSC7611' (confidence: 5) Driver `coretemp' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * Chip `Intel Core family thermal sensor' (confidence: 9) Do you want to overwrite /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no): You should now start the lm_sensors service to load the required kernel modules. [root at media ~]# service lm_sensors start Starting lm_sensors: loading module i2c-i801 coretemp No sensors found! Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need. Try sensors-detect to find out which these are. [FAILED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Searching the archives, there seems to be issues with other people using boards with the same chipset? Mines an Intel D946GZIS Desktop Board. So in the hope of finding a solution, I've put below outputs of various commands that may help!
