Hi, I have recently installed Debian Squeeze on my Hp Pavilion dv6 dual booting with Windows 7, and am experiencing heat problems with the temperature readings produced by lm-sensors: root at debian:/home/zhong# sensors -f k10temp-pci-00c3 Adapter: PCI adapter temp1: +164.3°F (high = +158.0°F, crit = +239.9°F) The problem never appears in Windows. Here's the detection result: root at debian:/home/zhong# sensors-detect # sensors-detect revision 5818 (2010-01-18 17:22:07 +0100) # System: Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC (laptop) # Board: Hewlett-Packard 143F 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. Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors. Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no): y Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595... No VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors... No VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors... No AMD K8 thermal sensors... No AMD Family 10h thermal sensors... Success! (driver `k10temp') AMD Family 11h thermal sensors... No Intel Core family thermal sensor... No Intel Atom thermal sensor... No Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No VIA C7 thermal sensor... No VIA Nano thermal sensor... No Some Super I/O chips contain embedded sensors. We have to write to standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe. Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): y Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f Trying family `National Semiconductor'... No Trying family `SMSC'... No Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No Trying family `ITE'... No Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f Trying family `National Semiconductor'... No Trying family `SMSC'... No Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No Trying family `ITE'... No Some hardware monitoring chips are accessible through the ISA I/O ports. We have to write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe though. Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any ISA slots! Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (YES/no): y Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' at 0x290... No Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79' at 0x290... No Probing for `Winbond W83781D' at 0x290... No Probing for `Winbond W83782D' at 0x290... No Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble on some systems. Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no): y Using driver `i2c-piix4' for device 0000:00:14.0: ATI Technologies Inc SB600/SB700/SB800 SMBus Module i2c-dev loaded successfully. Next adapter: (i2c-0) Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): y Next adapter: (i2c-1) Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): y Client found at address 0x28 Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78'... No Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79'... No Probing for `National Semiconductor LM80'... No Probing for `Winbond W83781D'... No Probing for `Winbond W83782D'... No Probing for `Winbond W83627HF'... No Probing for `Winbond W83627EHF'... No Probing for `Winbond W83627DHG/W83667HG/W83677HG'... No Probing for `Asus AS99127F (rev.1)'...

No Client found at address 0x50 Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1033'... No Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1034'... No Probing for `SPD EEPROM'... yNo Probing for `EDID EEPROM'... Yes (confidence 8, not a hardware monitoring chip) Next adapter: (i2c-2) Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded): * Chip `AMD Family 10h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9) No modules to load, skipping modules configuration. Unloading i2c-dev... OK I've researched this issue multiple times and find varied possible solutions. However, when regarding about the open source radeon driver, people tend to agree that the driver has poor power management and prefer switching to fglrx. I, on the other hand would much co-reside on this driver if I can configure the device, but the xorg config cannot be find due to Debian removing this file on its release of Squeeze. I'm just listing the most probable clues here, but like to hear what others would say. |
