One of these could be +5V, it's usually monitored (even though the lack of mention in your BIOS suggests that might not be the case here.) One could be 5VSB. Both would need scaling so are more likely to appear in the 2.5 - 3.3 V range unscaled. in8 is normally Vbat on the IT8716F, it shouldn't need scaling. Didn't it report a correct value for you? For reference, please let us know which kernel you're running. > > compute in4 @ * (64/16), @ / (64/16) You can just make this: compute in4 @ * 4, @ / 4 This is more efficient. > > label fan1 "CPU fan" > # One of these is the "System fan", but I don't have anything connected > # to that socket, so I don't know which one. > ignore fan2 > ignore fan3 Then for the wiki version of your configuration file, we won't ignore any input. Better print 0 RPM than omit a running fan. If you have the possibility to test with a spare fan to see which is which, we'll update the configuration file. > > label temp1 "CPU temp" > label temp2 "System temp" > ignore temp3 > > # Min and max for Athlon II X2 245e > set in0_min 0.875 > set in0_max 1.4 Did you check if the BIOS had set proper limits on its own? > # JEDEC standard for DDR2 > set in1_min 1.7 > set in1_max 1.9 > # 5 % tolerance on the remaining measurements > set in2_min 3.3 * 0.95 > set in2_max 3.3 * 1.05 > set in4_min 12.0 * 0.95 > set in4_max 12.0 * 1.05 > set in5_min 1.1 * 0.95 > set in5_max 1.1 * 1.05 This all looks very good, I've added your configuration file to the wiki: http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Configurations/Foxconn/A7GM-S%202.0 We can update it with your later findings as needed. -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/wishlist.html _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
