[lm-sensors] Possible bug with IT8715F (re: Asus M2NPV-VM)

[lm-sensors] Possible bug with IT8715F (re: Asus M2NPV-VM)

[VDR User]

Just upgraded my debian box to an Asus M2NPV-VM mainboard with 1GB ram
and a Athlon64-X2 4400+ cpu.  I noticed that the k8temp values for the
CPU were off but I've read thats due to a problem with the cpu.  I
noticed that lm-sensors (using the stock sensors.conf) reads only 3
fan values when I believe it should be reading 4.  It correctly
detects my CPU and PSU fans but there are 2 chassis fan plugs on the
mainboard (currently without fans plugged into them) which would give
me a total of 4.  Of the 3 fans lm-sensors outputs values for, one of
them reads 0 which I assume if one of the chassis fan ports.  Is it a
bug that the 4th is not there or could I have possibly done something
wrong?

I'm still fairly new to linux, lm-sensors, and this mailing list so
please excuse if this has been addressed in the past at some point.

Many thanks!

Some info...
Debian (sid)
2.6.22-rc3 kernel
Asus M2NPV-VM mainboard
AMD Athlon64-X2 4400+ cpu
lm-sensors version 1:2.10.3-1

some output from sensors-detect:

Hi,


I have a different model of the M2N mainboard and it requires another
driver for the additional fans i have.

So in addition to the it87 i have to load the lm85 driver and do a
force_adt7463=<bus>,<address> for that module. Have not gotten it to
work fully yet since the modules.conf does not tell how to decode the
additional fans and sensors on it.


Also about the k8temp there have been some discussion about that before,
myself get a 10 degree offset on it when compared to the cpu-temp from
the it87 driver..


Hope it helps, and if you get any formulas to get the correct values
from the lm85 chip please post them here..
