Re: [LUG] psensor temp1

Just checking that a simple psensor install would see the cpu as temp1?
My machine has started switching itself off and temp1 is currently around 90c....

psensor? I'm not familiar with that one - lm-sensors is the "usual" package I know of.

What you get depends on how well the sensors detect the hardware and the kernel supporting it.

e.g. on my Atom based home/office server, all I get is:

acpitz-virtual-0
Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:       +47.0 C  (crit = +100.0 C)

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:      +26.0 C  (crit = +90.0 C)

On a (quad core) system, I see:

atk0110-acpi-0
Adapter: ACPI interface
Vcore Voltage:     +1.04 V  (min =  +0.85 V, max =  +1.60 V)
 +3.3 Voltage:     +3.40 V  (min =  +2.97 V, max =  +3.63 V)
 +5 Voltage:       +5.06 V  (min =  +4.50 V, max =  +5.50 V)
 +12 Voltage:     +12.08 V  (min = +10.20 V, max = +13.80 V)
CPU FAN Speed:    1781 RPM  (min =  600 RPM)
CHASSIS FAN Speed:   0 RPM  (min =  600 RPM)
POWER FAN Speed:     0 RPM  (min =  600 RPM)
CPU Temperature:   +35.0°C  (high = +60.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
MB Temperature:    +40.0°C  (high = +45.0°C, crit = +75.0°C)

k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1:       +19.5°C  (high = +70.0°C, crit = +99.5°C)


and so on. (The aux. fans don't have speed sensors )-:

So try the lm-sensors package..


However 90C is a bit hot... Make sure the fan is turning, etc. and if it is, make sure the heatsink is touching the chip - sometimes worth re-seating them.
