December 16, 20205 yr I recently switched from an intel based system to an Ryzen 5950x on an MSI motherboard and discovered that dynamix system temp plugin does not detect cpu temp due to not having the correct driver in the linux kernel. The driver in question is the NCT6687 driver and it was recently added to the latest linux NEXT kernel in hwmon 6683 driver https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxhardware/comments/kahmb1/nct_6687_support_added_to_linux_kernel/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/drivers/hwmon?h=next-20201215 Noting that unraid 6.9.0-rc1 is running kernel 5.9.13 and that 5.9.14 also doesn’t contain the updated driver package, is there a way for me to install this driver package? TIA
December 16, 20205 yr Author Maybe @ich777 could input some insight if this is even possible. He maintains the kernel helper plugin but i’m not sure if updating this driver is possible to do individually?

Open up the Unraid terminal and copy paste this: cd /tmp wget https://fastdl.minenet.at/nct-1.txz installpkg nct-1.txz depmod -a modprobe nct6687 The package is based on this source (slightly modified to easily create a Slackware package). EDIT: I forgot to say this package will only work on Unraid 6.9.0 RC1 !!!

In the Unraid-Kernel-Helper thread should be also a link I think.
December 20, 20205 yr v6.9-rc2 can show the CPU temp without anything special, @ich777 what does your .txz package solve for RC2? I tried the above script - changing the url for RC2 - but modprobe line gives an error: Quote # modprobe nct6687 modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nct6687': No such device Edited December 20, 20205 yr by UNOPARATOR

I tried the above script - changing the url for RC2 - but modprobe line gives an error: Oh nice didn't know that since I don't got such hardware. As I mentioned above you have to change the link and also the filename is now different where you install tge package. EDIT: Then this is depricated and I will not build it for further versions of Unraid.
December 20, 20205 yr First of all, as I mentioned in my previous post, I did change the url to your RC2 .txz link, ran all lines one by one in unRAID Terminal, but the last line gave an error. Should I change anything in System Temps before trying? Secondly, RC2 only shows the CPU temp but no MB temp or fans. Did your workaround offer those values? I know you don't own such hardware but who would know what your package does other than yourself, right? (maybe @Bolagnaise does, since your RC1 package worked for him.)

As I mentioned above this is not my work, I only compiled it and made a package for Unraid so that it installs correctly and is user friendly, please look at the Github repo from above that I've linked. From my understanding this is only the Kernel Module for NCT6687 so that the temps and fans are recognized and also that you can control the fans also please note that with different implementations from different manifacturers not everything can/will work correctly. 1 hour ago, UNOPARATOR said: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nct6687': No such device If it gives you this error than something went wrong at the installation of the package and/or depmod. EDIT: @Bolagnaise is this needed for RC2? Should I build it for upcoming versions of Unraid?
December 20, 20205 yr Supposedly by, the github repo owner tested this with a B550 MB. Since I'm not a linux expert, I don't know why the procedure gave an error.
