Found `Nuvoton NCT6792D Super IO Sensors' (but not activated)

 After more digging, this is what I found

 

root@Tower:~# modprobe nct6775
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nct6775': No such device
root@Tower:~# dmesg | grep -i nct
[  146.871928] nct6775: Refusing to enable a Super-I/O device with a base I/O port 0

 

Original:

 

Greetings,

 

I'm currently attempting to manage my fans, but I'm encountering some difficulties.

 

On one of my unRAID servers, specifically the one equipped with a Fujitsu D3401-B2 motherboard, the Dynamix System Temperature plugin functioned seamlessly, automatically identifying the "coretemp nct6775" drivers.

 

However, I'm facing an issue with my second unRAID server, which shares a similar motherboard (Fujitsu D3402-B2). In the Dynamix plugin, I'm only able to detect the "coretemp" driver.

 

If I run "sensors-detect", I get this part

 

Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors.

Some Super I/O chips contain embedded sensors. We have to write to
standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe.

What does it means that Nuvoton NCT6792D Super IO Sensors was found but was not activated? From where I can activate it?

 

Thanks in advance!

It seams that I had to use ftsteutates for my motherboard. You can enable it by running "modprobe ftsteutates"

I can add some context why I had to use ftsteutates driver (https://docs.kernel.org/hwmon/ftsteutates.html) instead of nct6775.

 

It seams that my motherboard (Fujitsu D3402-B21) is using a Teutates chip, not Nuvoton NCT6792D how sensors-detect is saying. 

 

Specifications of the chip can be found at the Kontron FTP Server https://ftp.kontron.com/ (username = “anonymous”, no password required) under the following path:

/Services/Software_Tools/Linux_SystemMonitoring_Watchdog_GPIO/BMC-Teutates_Specification_V1.21.pdf

/Services/Software_Tools/Linux_SystemMonitoring_Watchdog_GPIO/Fujitsu_mainboards-1-Sensors_HowTo-en-US.pdf

 

I still have a problem, the Auto Fan plugin can't detect any PWM controller. Still looking for a solution.

Hi!

Did you manage to control it somehow?

I have similar issue :)

  • Author

No, I haven't had any issues with the disk temperature so far, so I haven't looked into it further.

Did you find a solution? I do have the same probelem :(
