lm_sensors and LINUX

[Dr_s99]

Hello,
I got my lm_sensors, working ... for my AMD computer but my problem is that the reading for the voltage is off :D (for some Vcore is oky for rest is 2x the value it suppose to be :D ) any ideas how i could fix this?

take a look @ /etc/sensors.conf (or Suse's name for it) read the _header_ of the file and look for your hw sensor and change the "compute" directives... (maybe you've to delete one, or remove a * 2 or / .5 ...)

you can adopt your changes when run (as root) sensors -s /etc/sensors.conf... (now check the values again!)

(since you did neither say which hw sensor you have nor what the exact output
look like, you've to do all by yourself! :D)


example / fresh sensors.conf (http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/etc/sensors.conf.eg) (Backup!)

Also if using gkrellm to do the monitoring then there is no need to modify the sensors.conf file it has adjustments you can make in the configuration.
