Hello SuSE people,
Running 10.0 on AMD64.
After installing the package, I ran sensors-detect in Konsole. Did all of the probing, testing, etc. Then it suggested additions to two config files before it finished. The following is a paste from the Konsole.
To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:
#----cut here---- # I2C adapter drivers modprobe i2c-viapro modprobe i2c-isa # I2C chip drivers modprobe eeprom modprobe w83627hf # sleep 2 # optional /usr/bin/sensors -s # recommended #----cut here----
Question is What file does that get added to. I have only an rc.status file and a rc.splash.
You don't need to; it's delivered as part of 10.0. Don't mess around with your system and introduce local patches, just use the SUSE-supplied framework. Check that you have /etc/init.d/lm_sensors, that's the file you're looking for. It's in the package sensors-2.9.1-4, on my 10.0 system. Check /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors and add these modules to the configuration if they're not already there. In your case, this configuration file should finish with MODULE_0=i2c-viapro MODULE_1=i2c-isa MODULE_2=eeprom MODULE_3=w83627hf (I don't remember any more if I put the modules list there myself or if sensors-detect did that already.) Call "/etc/init.d/lm_sensors start" to start the whole thing. Call "sensors" to check if it works. Call "chkconfig -a lm_sensors" to initialize the system at boot time. For the last straw, update /etc/sensors.conf with temperature and fan thresholds to get proper warnings. (You must call "sensors -s" again to activate your changes.) Add a sensors service check to your Nagios installation, to get automatically informed when your CPU gets too hot or your fans die. The hardest part of that is to get the information about good thresholds. ;-) Cheers, Joachim -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Joachim Schrod Email: jschrod@acm.org Roedermark, Germany -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
