Hi, I'm trying to use lm-sensors with a Gigabyte EG45M-DS2H motherboard and a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz (from /proc/cpuinfo) sensor-detect asks me to load it87 and coretemp modules I'm using Debian lenny versions of lm-sensors: 1:3.0.2-1+b2 (ie 3.0.2 upstream) My chips is a it8718F. When loading my modules, I get: [ 15.646427] it87: Found IT8718F chip at 0x290, revision 5 [ 15.646427] it87: in3 is VCC (+5V) [ 15.654427] coretemp coretemp.0: Using relative temperature scale! [ 15.654427] coretemp coretemp.1: Using relative temperature scale! [ 15.654427] coretemp coretemp.2: Using relative temperature scale! [ 15.654427] coretemp coretemp.3: Using relative temperature scale! The default configuration file did have have anything for a it8718. I wrote a section based on the one found here: http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Configurations/Gigabyte/G33-DS3R I had to change low/over to min/max and to comment out "set sensor3 0" I also add a problem with in0_(min|max): vid was not valid and cpu0_vid was always 0. At first, I put a explicit value here. Then, I read http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/lm-sensors/trunk/doc/vid (pointed by your FAQ) It tells: 109 The following chip drivers support only VRM 8.2 and cannot be changed: 110 111 adm1024, it87, mtp008, adm9240, gl520sm, lm78 112 113 If you have a board with one of these chips which needs advanced 114 VRM support please email us. So, I'm emailing you. Indeed, my /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/vrm had by default a value of 110. The intel website has a document for VRM 11.0. If I put the value 100 in /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/device/vrm, then I got a non zero value for cpu0_vid (the value seems non absurd, ie sensors reports 1.063V for cpu_vid0) Note that "set vrm 100" in my it8718 section is refused by "sensors -s": # sensors -s Error: Line 1429: Unknown feature name it8718-isa-0290: No such subfeature known If you need more information, please, ask me (but I'm not subscribed to this ML, so CC me) Last remark: lm-sensors seems to work with my config but I'm not sure that the CPU temp is correctly computed. I've: NBr Temp: +37.0?C (low = +10.0?C, high = +50.0?C) sensor = transistor CPU Temp: +21.0?C (low = +10.0?C, high = +60.0?C) sensor = thermal diode and then Core 0: +31.0?C (high = +82.0?C, crit = +100.0?C) Core 1: +32.0?C (high = +82.0?C, crit = +100.0?C) Core 2: +28.0?C (high = +82.0?C, crit = +100.0?C) Core 3: +31.0?C (high = +82.0?C, crit = +100.0?C) Regards, Vincent -- Vincent Danjean GPG key ID 0x9D025E87 vdanjean at debian.org GPG key fingerprint: FC95 08A6 854D DB48 4B9A 8A94 0BF7 7867 9D02 5E87 Unofficial pacakges: http://www-id.imag.fr/~danjean/deb.html#package APT repo: deb http://perso.debian.org/~vdanjean/debian unstable main
