nforce3 and asus k8n temperature sensors?
 

I have nforce3 chipset on an asus k8n motherboard.

And an amd64 3000+ processor.Can anyone guide me to installing some temperature/fan speed sensors like lm-sensors.I didn't find no suitable i2c driver in the kernel.

Need a patch... I'm currently working on it and I'll let you know if I get arround to it :)

anarhistu, the k8n is compatible with the it87 i2c module. You will need to load the following modules -

i2c_sensor
i2c_isa
i2c_core
it87

and then run sensors, you can get rid of any unused temp for fan entries by editing /etc/sensors.conf
FYI my output on a k8n is:

it8712-isa-0d00

M/B Temp: +26°C (low = +15°C, high = +40°C) sensor = thermistor
CPU Temp: +25°C (low = +15°C, high = +45°C) sensor = thermistor


Read the lm sensors installation guide for details of how to set it up permantently.

Good luck
