Yay, at last someone has figured out the peculiarities of the Ion monitoring setup \o/

I can now throw away all my half-baked hacked around not-working attempts and use lmsensors like a normal person Big Grin

Haha! Right. Same for me Wink

Yes, but at least on Asrock ION 330 it does not seem to work.

domi55 · 2009-07-17, 13:21

Did you rerun

Code:
# sudo sensors-detect

After doing

Code:
# modprobe i2c-dev

# modprobe i2c-nforce2

# echo "10de 0aa2" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/nForce2_smbus/new_id

# i2cdetect -l should now show you two new nvidia SMBus adapters:

i2c-0 i2c NVIDIA i2c adapter I2C adapter

i2c-1 i2c NVIDIA i2c adapter I2C adapter

i2c-2 i2c NVIDIA i2c adapter I2C adapter

i2c-3 smbus SMBus nForce2 adapter at 4d00 SMBus adapter

i2c-4 smbus SMBus nForce2 adapter at 4e00 SMBus adapter

# modprobe lm85

?

Yes, and he detected nothing.

Will try again from the top later, maybe I made a misstake somewhere.

Hm... Thats acutally strange. I will try the procedure tonight with my Zotac ION 330 board.
Can you please update kzanol from the ubuntu forums that you were unsuccessful?

domi55 · 2009-07-17, 19:22

Hm... The procedure does not work on my Zotac ION ITX A board:

cpu temp support for the all atom processors is not in lmsensors/kernel yet. You're just going to have to wait for upstream to add it.

Hi all!

Monitoring CPU temps on a Zotac IONITX A board is now possible:

Needed module: [url removed]

Quote:(T: XBMCLive)root@XBMCLive:/tmp# mv coretemp.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/hwmon/
(T: XBMCLive)xbmc@XBMCLive:/tmp$ sudo vi /etc/modules <-- Add coretemp to the end of the file
(T: XBMCLive)xbmc@XBMCLive:/tmp$ sudo init 6
(T: XBMCLive)xbmc@XBMCLive:/tmp$ sudo sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0: +30.0Â°C (crit = +95.0Â°C)

coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1: +28.0Â°C (crit = +95.0Â°C)

coretemp-isa-0002
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 2: +30.0Â°C (crit = +95.0Â°C)

coretemp-isa-0003
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 3: +28.0Â°C (crit = +95.0Â°C)

And now I use the following advancedsettings.xml commands:

Code:
<gputempcommand>echo "$(nvidia-settings -c :0 -tq GPUCoreTemp) C"</gputempcommand>

<cputempcommand>echo "$(sensors -u | head -6 |grep "temp1_input"| awk '{print $2 }' |awk '{printf("%d\n",$1 + 0.5);}') C"</cputempcommand>

Thanks very much to kzanol and tg1 from the ubuntu forums:

Great work!

I can't emphasize enough how STUPID it is to download a random kernel module and just load it up. It's a terrible idea from a security standpoint. Not to mention kernel module binaries are very restricted as far as kernel and compiler versions go, so you'd be lucky if it even loads. I'm removing the link. Team XBMC can't be responsible for such an unsafe practice. Find a link to the sources and write up a howto for building it.

Alright althekiller. I do understand you. But this is in my case just for playing around a little bit. Sorry for that.

No problem. Thanks for editing.

I'm sorry for the newby question but, where is advancedsettings.xml?? I'm trying to get the temp sensors working on XBMC but i can't find advancedsettings.xml

regards,

you have to create it manually, like it is said in the wiki

Many thanks, i've solved it and it's working fine now (GPU and CPU temps)

kind regards,
