Getting CPU temperature in unraid

[Lokosis]

So I recently installed a new CPU cooler (Cooler Master Hyper 212+) in my unraid system solely for the purpose of running it passively. Although it runs fine with just the heatsink I'm more curious in knowing the temperature that it gets to now.

 

The CPU is an AMD Sempron 1400.

 

I've installed unmenu and lm-sensors. When running a scan, it finds the k10 processor and the it87 chipset, now it seems that the k10 temp can't be read yet, but when doing a modprobe it87 to install the sensor files it comes back with an error.

 

Can anyone confirm that the Sempron's temp can't be read? Also what it'd need to install to get it87 to report temps.

What is your mobo and chipset?  What version of unRAID.

 

Loading it87 can actually interfer with getting CPU temps on certain mobos, which need a different driver.  I know of at least one ASUS mobo that has this issue.

Motherboard: ASUS M2A74-AM

unRAID: 4.5.6

Try not loading it87... load k8temp.

[Lokosis]

The second part of the problem is when I do try and load anyone of them with 'modprobe k8temp' I always get the 'FATAL: Module k8temp not found.'

Wait for 5.0-beta3.

Will beta3 include CPU temps in the standard interface, or have the necessary chipset files to work with lm-sensors?

[bubbaQ]

It will have more chipset drivers, and they will be modules, and not built-in.... specifically to prevent it87 from autoloading and interfering with temps on the Asus mobos.
