Running lm-sensors on Ubuntu 12.04 on an Acer Aspire 8930G laptop and I see: % sensors acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +38.0°C (crit = +106.0°C) temp2: +48.0°C (crit = +106.0°C) temp3: +48.0°C (crit = +106.0°C) temp4: +43.0°C (crit = +106.0°C) nouveau-pci-0100 Adapter: PCI adapter temp1: +49.0°C (high = +100.0°C, crit = +110.0°C) coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +33.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) Core 1: +33.0°C (high = +105.0°C, crit = +105.0°C) I'd like to figure out proper labels for these. The two coretemp sensors (if working) are obvious, and nouveau I'd assume is the GPU temp. The rest from acpitz-virtual-0 are less clear. They approximately map out the same pattern, tracking system loading, with slightly different scaling factors. I didn't see any guidance in the FAQ on a general approach to reverse engineering the labeling for sensors. There must be a recommended approach for this. I did see in the FAQ that there is no database of configurations per motherboard/laptop, but I would expect that with all the temperature monitoring utilities for Windows, one or more of them likely has bundled configuration files that can be used as a reference. (If so, this sort of aggregated factual information could even be bulk converted to sensors.conf format legally.) -Tom _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
