Thanks ipic,
there seems to be several solutions.
Maybe we should try with the gentoo-dist kernel first. There is the solution automatically.

Thanks, but I'm using gentoo-sources and don't want to move.
So, if the dist kernel does it, there must be kernel config options it uses? Or boot commands?
Just for reference: | Code: | ian2 ~ # modprobe nct6775
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nct6775': No such device
ian2 ~ # modinfo nct6775
filename: /lib/modules/5.12.4-gentoo/kernel/drivers/hwmon/nct6775.ko
license: GPL
description: Driver for NCT6775F and compatible chips
author: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>
srcversion: 6A2450AC2B674DB39C45313
depends: hwmon-vid
retpoline: Y
intree: Y
name: nct6775
vermagic: 5.12.4-gentoo SMP preempt mod_unload modversions
sig_id: PKCS#7
signer:
sig_key:
sig_hashalgo: unknown
signature:
parm: force_id:Override the detected device ID (ushort)
parm: fan_debounce:Enable debouncing for fan RPM signal (ushort)
ian2 ~ #
|
And in my kernel config: | Code: | Symbol: SENSORS_NCT6775 [=m] │
│ Type : tristate │
│ Defined at drivers/hwmon/Kconfig:1433 │
│ Prompt: Nuvoton NCT6775F and compatibles │
│ Depends on: HWMON [=y] && !PPC │
│ Location: │
│ -> Device Drivers │
│ (1) -> Hardware Monitoring support (HWMON [=y]) │
│ Selects: HWMON_VID [=m] |
I think that means I need to force the module to use the ITE IT8665E chip somehow. Not sure how a dist kernel would do that for me. |

According to this, the module signature does not seem correct.

Sorry, beyond my expertise.
What's wrong with it? |

Well that is simply that I have chosen not to sign my modules.
It isn't a pre-requisite for them working as far as I know - so red herring in this context I think. |

Okay, I'm out of the game.

okay thanks all.
It still does not work for me. I just tried the asus_wmi_sensors and this gives me
| Code: | dmesg | grep asus
[ 11.299356] asus_wmi_sensors: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.
[ 11.299736] asuswmisensors: Vendor: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. Board: PRIME B350-PLUS BIOS version: 4207 WMI version: 0
[ 11.299736] asuswmisensors: Unsupported board |
So maybe in the future.... |

No comment. |
Its been a while, and I'd not bothered to check - however, asus_wmi_sensors has been included in the kernel tree since 5.17
So, just set CONFIG_SENSORS_ASUS_WMI in that or any later kernel. |
