(Done) Z97 chipset lm-sensors

[pete910]

Anyone know when/if the new chipset will be supported with regards lm-sensors ?

I had seen some commits to the kernel list for driver updates/pci id's in the last month just wondered if they would be patched into MG4/5 ?

I did update to sensors 3.3.5 with libsensors version 3.3.5.

Tried mga5 a2 but still dont work.

The cpu temps work fine via coretemp but that's all. No voltages/fan rpm

Any idea anyone?

MB is a Asus Sabertooth z97 mark 1

Check here: http://lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices
EDIT: Or check the current interim solution from e.g. http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/l ... 41776.html

That's what you get for buying bleeding-edge chipsets AND wanting to use linux on top with all bells and whistles

Tried them all ready mine uses the Nuvoton NCT6791D

lmsensors picks it up but is unable to use it.

I did rebuild the current driver for said chip but still no joy.

I know! I should know better

I bought a P5Q Asus mobo when they were new, it took about 12 months before I could use the on board raid properly. But the upside is it's still in use some 6 or 7 years later

Hang tight, it will come down the chain at some stage

Did you check the standalone driver on github: https://github.com/groeck/nct6775/ ? And what Mageia version is that?
And also see the thread: http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/l ... 40401.html

That's the driver I am using/trying . Followed the same info/pages

MGA4 64 bit.

Using the latest lmsensrs too.

doing sensors detect picks it up and all the rest of it but still dont work.

Something I've missed you thinking?

Nope, best ask upstream on lm-sensors mailing list for further information. Can't really comment more on this topic as I'm not using lm-sensors myself.

Update:

Asus have changed something with there recent BIOS updates which is causing the problem. A user on the LM-sensors ml has found this out. http://www.spinics.net/lists/lm-sensors/msg42336.html

Looking at mine it seems it a address conflict, dmesg is showing this

Code: Select all

ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000000295-0x0000000000000296 conflicts with OpRegion 0x0000000000000290-0x0000000000000299 (\_GPE.HWM_) (20131218/utaddress-258)

Only way round it is by putting the line

Code: Select all

acpi_enforce_resources=lax

in gub.

From what I understand that ain't the best solution.

So, kind of solved though more like a work round

Please mark the thread accordingly by editing the topic of the first post and prefix it by [DONE] as there's not much more we can do about this.
Would also be appreciated if you could use a more meaningful thread title, at least mention lm_sensors there please

lol, was thinking of marking done to find that you have commented on it
