[opensuse] getting sensors to work
Hello, I'd like to control my fan speed. I have installed the sensors package and ran sensors-detect (as root). Here is what I got at the end: Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no): Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/init.d/lm_sensors for initialization at boot time. You should now start the lm_sensors service to load the required kernel modules. The only non-commented line in the new etc/init.d/lm_sensors is: HWMON_MODULES="coretemp nct6775" So how do I get hese modules to load? I do not know where prog/init/lm_sensors.init is, and besides, opensuse uses systemd, non sysv-init? When I do "modprobe nct6775", pwmconfig works, but this is just until the next reboot unless I can get the modules to load automatically. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

hmm, does lm_sensors even get started at boot? check that first! [code] systemctl status lm_sensors.service [code] output should start with: [output] lm_sensors.service - Initialize hardware monitoring sensors Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/lm_sensors.service; enabled) Active: active (exited) since ..... [/output] to enable (automatic start at boot): [code] systemctl enable lm_sensors.service [/code] to start NOW: [code] systemctl start lm_sensors.service [/code] Hope this gives a hint that helps. - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

That should be in file "/etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors", not in "etc/init.d/lm_sensors" You should have a file "/etc/init.d/lm_sensors" intact from the rpm package "sensors". You probably replaced the correct init file with the configuration file, so force install the rpm with YaST to correct the situation. Or extract that single file from the rpm and copy it to the correct place.
So how do I get hese modules to load? I do not know where prog/init/lm_sensors.init is,
No need.
and besides, opensuse uses systemd, non sysv-init?
No matter. Init files are compatible. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I did not - but, after loading the module manually and before any reboot, I slammed straight into another issue. Somehow pwmconfig never managed to stop the right fan. The reason might be that when one puts 0, or 20 or less, into pwm2 (which is the right fan), it just goes full speed. With 30 it goes quiet. And so it failed to write a correct fancontrol config, too. I'm thinking of bailing out, especially since it seems that the noise I hear is all PSU anyway. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Dunno, but if the init.d file is the one you posted, you should reinstall the package. Or was it a typo on the post? Please verify. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I have reinstalled it now. I think that was a typo as the file is really /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors I have now enabled and started lm_sensors.service. Still, pwmconfig is unable to stop the CPU fan (there is no other fan to control) and fancontrol does not get a working config. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik Unless explicitly stated, all opinions in my mail are my own and do not reflect the views of any organization -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

About fan control I don't know. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
