superkaramba fan question

ultimatenoob · 05-08-2005, 08:54 PM

I just downloaded and installed superkaramba mostly so i can have a monitor on my desktop of my cpu temp because dell made the mistake of putting the motherboard directly on the bottom of the computer, and it can overheat if left on to long. Everything went really well i must say (especially considering what a noob i am) until i couldnt get the fan working, and its says why in the code, but i dont know how to find what i need. heres what it says though:

and this is using superkaramba (installed with yum) and using the theme called cynapse. If anyone has any idea how i can bring these up, id be really grateful if you could let me know!

cheers

I want to know as well if someone cares to explain what modules that we have to load into the system first.

I know those above lines of code do not produce any readings yet unless we have something that connect between the BIOS and OS.
