I unloaded k10temp, then loaded k8temp... no changes. Then I loaded k10temp force=1.... no changes. Then I loaded it87.... bam... lots of voltage, fan and temp info. Loading the others did nothing. Unloading k8temp... no changes. and unloading the rest (including k10temp)... no changes.
Did you also load i2c-dev and i2c-piix?
I did, but loading.. or not loading, I see zero difference in the temp/fan monitoring
Well, those are the temps read from sensors on the MoBo, not the CPU temp.
Yup, but they are the only temps that make any sense. I loaded all of the modules we discussed, including using the force=1 on k10temp and nothing else shows up... k10temp never shows anything except 0C I've installed gkrelm and am using that to keep an eye on the MB temps and the fan speeds. So far it's pretty uneventful. The only temp that really ever spikes is the Nvidia GPU temp when I put it under some load... it's also the owner of the loudest fan in my system. The CPU fans (2) are running at 600ish... the rear case fan at 800 and the front fan at 1000. I can slow the front fan down a bit.. I don't have a case heat issue at all, even under load.
Have a look at those dirs /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:18.3/ /sys/bus/pci/drivers/k10temp/ /sys/module/k10temp/
replacing the PCI id accordingly.
Hmmm.. haven't done that yet. Will look later today.
Oh, do you have any messages in dmesg / /v/l/m when you load k10temp etc.?
Didn't think of that. I'll tinker with that tonight. I had to do a full system reinstall last night (unrelated to this discussion) so... hopefully after work today I can poke this a bit and see what's reported when i load the kernel module.
You can tweak it's output in /etc/fancontrol manually afterwards, but it's a very good start esp. with those pesky strings. I have e.g.: snip Read up in 'man fancontrol'.
This is all a massive help. I've got some reading to do :-) It should be interesting to see where I can take this now that I've got some info to work with.
