May 5, 20233 yr Hello, I added az NZXT Smart v2 fan controller to my unraid setup. In 6.11.0 changelog there is a line about it: Quote added additional sensor drivers: CONFIG_SENSORS_NZXT_SMART2: NZXT RGB & Fan Controller/Smart Device v2 How can I load these drivers, so they are shown in the UI, and they can be used to control the fanspeed with custom scripts via 'standard hwmon'. I installed the docker, which shows these fans inside the docker, and I can control them manually, but the docker can't read hdd temps. I'd prefer to use the fans without docker (liquidctl) anyway. The docker's readme also mentiones, that this device can be used through hwmon, and the drivers are part of the 5.13 kernel, which is i guess it is mentioned in the 6.11.0 changelog. (https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/hwmon/nzxt-smart2.html) soooo, how do i load these drivers, and 'expose' these fans to unraid? Thanks!
May 8, 20233 yr Author bump? anyone? seems like an easy thing to do, if you know your way around linux/unraid

May 8, 20233 yr Author thanks for the reply! sensors doesn't show any values from the nzxt device, just from my normal sensors. sensors detect doesn't find the device either. the modprobe command didn't bring up anything, lsmod just showed the same thing as you wrote. any ideas?
