Re: lm-sensors doesn't see the cpu rpm.....

Dear All,

I looked at the config-4.9.0-4-amd64 file for the current kernel:

It seems that the kernel is configured with the module m setting consistently not the internal y setting so debian does not use the built in option by default here it would seem

- see discussion here

https://www.linux.com/learn/intro-to-linux/2017/9/advanced-lm-sensors-tips-and-tricks-linux-0

so modifying the /etc/modules file works here.

I notice that
# CONFIG_SENSORS_W83795_FANCTRL is not set

has been commented out

and

# CONFIG_SENSORS_GPIO_FAN is not set

is in a similar state

I will continue looking at this in more detail.

I have 3 case fans in the box here but lm-sensors only sees two of them apparently as well as not seeing the cpu fan.

Funny stuff.

Dear Folks,

I am running stretch on an AMD FX8350 box which uses an Arctic Freezer 13 cooler.

I installed lm-sensors and ran the /etc module update command.

The output looks like this:

The cpu fan is running at around 2500 rpm.

If the connector were 3 pin rather than 4 pin could that explain the zero here?

Suggestions on a tweak that could awaken the sensor or stimulate lm-sensors truffle hound hunting skills here would be appreciated.

Googling around gives quite complex suggestions.

Is there something simple I could try here?
