i need some help with this????

im trying to install lm_sensors

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] sys-apps/lm_sensors-2.10.0  +sensord 0 kB

Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] yes

You need to enable I2C in your kernel. On my I have the following one active:

Code: Select all

gentoo / # grep "CONFIG_I2C" /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_I2C=m
CONFIG_I2C_CHARDEV=m
CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT=m
CONFIG_I2C_ALGOPCF=m
CONFIG_I2C_ALGOPCA=m
# CONFIG_I2C_ALI1535 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_ALI1563 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_ALI15X3 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_AMD756 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_AMD8111 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_ELEKTOR is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_I801 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_I810 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_PIIX4 is not set

CONFIG_I2C_PARPORT=m
# CONFIG_I2C_PARPORT_LIGHT is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_PROSAVAGE is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_SAVAGE4 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_SIS5595 is not set

# CONFIG_I2C_STUB is not set

# CONFIG_I2C_VOODOO3 is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_PCA_ISA is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_CORE is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_ALGO is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_BUS is not set
# CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_CHIP is not set
gentoo / #

Depending on your motherboard/sensors you need other modules to be active.

cheers

ok this is what i got in there

Code: Select all

# grep "CONFIG_I2C" /usr/src/linux/.config
# CONFIG_I2C is not set

After that save your kernel configuration and build your new kernel and install it. After a reboot, you should be able to install lm_sensors.

cheers

w8
so what your saying is i have to re-make my Kernel

i use genkernel

i dont know that much to make it by hand

is there any other way to get this lm_sensors shit to work

heres y im installing lm_sensors

so i can know the how hot my server is on the Command Prompt

are there any other progs out there that will do this

I have the same prob. I assume what he means is just sync your kernel..?? I am completely new to linux... What is the command after you select I2C option to start the update?

EDIT:

would it be

emerge --update --deep --newuse world

???

Funbioy, ETARD..

If you've used genkernel then I find this the best way to generate new kernels. It's also good when you get a kernel upgrade in portage

As root, run

Code: Select all

mkdir /etc/kernels
cp /usr/src/linux/.config /etc/kernels/initial.config

This will back up your config file

then

Code: Select all

genkernel all --clean --mrproper --save-config --kernel-config=/etc/kernels/initial.config  --install --menuconfig

This will bring up the menu as shown in the screenshots from steveb. When you exit the menu then the kernel will compile itself (same as when you ran genkernel all as part of the initial install)

Now if you have kernel modules like nvidia, alsa-driver you have to re emerge them

Code: Select all

emerge -v --oneshot nvidia-kernel nvidia-glx alsa-driver

Then your new kernel should be ready.

The save-config option will save the new configuration in /etc/kernels

When you upgrade to a new version of a kernel you basically have to

change the symbolic link /usr/src/linux to point to the latest version in /usr/src

Code: Select all

ingrid src # ls -l
total 8
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   22 2006-05-27 18:17 linux -> linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r8
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 2006-05-11 20:24 linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r7
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 4096 2006-05-27 18:17 linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r8
ingrid src #

run the above genkernel command, but change the --kernel-config entry to the correct one
re emerge the kernel modules
alter grub / LILO to the new kernel name

Hope this helps

I recently installed this. I've been using gkrellm2 and hddtemp. I've not calibrated things yet, but it is nice to monitor the system.
The only thing I have not been able to figure out is how to add my power supply fan speed, which would be nice.

HDD temps, CPU fan as well as various voltages are included right on the gKrellm device.

Other may have discovered this, but I forgot to mention that I, also, used some of the plugins located in: x11-plugins/gkrellm-sensors

wow thanks for the info kerstman. Greatly appreciated.

E-TARD · Post by **E-TARD** » Tue May 30, 2006 1:20 am

oh ok i get it what your saying kerstman
thank you soo much for showing me what needed to do

& thank you to A.S. Pushkin & funboy.ch
for helping as well

Thanks for the info! This solved my problems with lm_sensors too.

!!! ERROR: sys-apps/lm_sensors-2.10.0 failed.

!!! ERROR: sys-apps/lm_sensors-2.10.0 failed.

lm_sensors and ksensors or gkrellm2

i love this board, there is soo much help ;)
