Hi forum,
My mobo is a tyan K8W S2875
I downloaded sensors.conf from tyan's web site
I installed lm_sensors-2.9.0
Modules i2c-isa and w83627hf are loaded
here is the outpout from sensors | Code: | w83627hf-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
+1.8V: +1.79 V (min = +1.71 V, max = +1.89 V)
CPU VRM: +1.47 V (min = +1.42 V, max = +1.57 V)
+3.3V: +3.26 V (min = +3.14 V, max = +3.47 V)
in3: +2.98 V (min = +0.22 V, max = +2.42 V)
5VSB: +5.33 V (min = +4.50 V, max = +5.50 V)
-12V: -12.42 V (min = -12.48 V, max = -12.27 V)
HT Volt: +1.17 V (min = +1.26 V, max = +1.14 V)
in7: +3.25 V (min = +3.82 V, max = +1.39 V)
VBat: +0.99 V (min = +2.40 V, max = +3.60 V)
CPU2 Fan: 6081 RPM (min = 45000 RPM, div = 2)
CPU1 Fan: 6617 RPM (min = 4272 RPM, div = 2)
SYS Fan: 0 RPM (min = 3590 RPM, div = 2)
CPU1 Temp:+116.5°C (high = +80°C, hyst = +75°C) sensor = thermistor ALARM
CPU2 Temp:+116.5°C (high = +80°C, hyst = +75°C) sensor = thermistor ALARM
vid: +1.500 V (VRM Version 2.4)
alarms:
beep_enable:
Sound alarm disabled |
I think the CPUs are a little bit hot 
The BIOS shows 44°C for both. That's cooler 
What can I do ?
Is there something to change in sensors.conf ?
TIA
Martin

Martin LORANG,
Read the comments in sensors.conf. You can apply scale factors to the results returned by the sensors and you can fix the titles for the PSU voltages too.
You may find there are comments for your board already.
Your CPUs have on die sensors (a diode in the CPU core). They normally have sensors in the CPU sockets too.
The on die sensor normally uses its own sensor chip.
You should have at least 2 Vcore votages for each CPU too.

I think I have another problem :
All the sensors show moving values (example +1.8V changes from +1.77 to +1.82). But the CPU temps always report +116.5°C (the BIOS reports from +25°C at startup after a long break and +44°C after an hour)

Martin LORANG,
The changing voltages are quite normal and due to the way the power supply works.
Don't be too concerned with the names. They are just text strings in sensors.conf.
If the CPU temps are always the same, it probably means that there is no sensor on that chip input.
You can change sensors.conf to hide those outputs.
You probably have another sensor device to get the CUP die temps.

1) I dont think so because the sensors.conf comes from tyan's web site
2) About 1 year ago with a kernel 2.6.x (0 < x < 6) the temp sensors worked : I had the same values as reported by the BIOS |

Martin LORANG,
Did you run sensors-detect ?
It has a good go at detecting the sensors on your motherboard. They may not be connected to the things in the sensors.conf default settings though. Some of mine were swapped and others incorrectly named.

the sensors.conf from tyans website show definitely false values for the k8w s2875. i have the same mobo and had to correct the config as following:
| Code: |
set sensor2 1
set sensor3 1
# set sensor2 3435
# set sensor3 3435
|
now sensors show the correct value!

Have you tried upgrading lm-sensors? The kernel people keep moving the i2c interface files, it took a systrace to figure out lm-sensors was looking in the wrong place after my last kernel upgrade.. | NeddySeagoon wrote: | Martin LORANG,

sensors-detect has never done anything for me but hard-freeze my computer. If I disable the tests that freeze, it finds nothing. As far as I can tell it's quite useless.

Thanks ! That did the trick for me
I dont understand why tyan has a wrong sensors.conf file ! |
