Ubuntu lm-sensors issue

nano · 2022-08-11T03:55:06.047Z

I have not had success getting lm-sensors to detect the cpu on Ubuntu.

root@GL-MV1000-Ubuntu:/# sensors-detect
# sensors-detect revision 6284 (2015-05-31 14:00:33 +0200)
# DMI data unavailable, please consider installing dmidecode 2.7

This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need
to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe
and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions,
unless you know what you're doing.

Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no):
modprobe: FATAL: Module cpuid not found in directory /lib/modules/4.4.52-armada-17.10.3-g44275f8
Failed to load module cpuid.

Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware
monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works
reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble
on some systems.
Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no):
Sorry, no supported PCI bus adapters found.

Next adapter: pxa_i2c-i2c (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):

Next adapter: pxa_i2c-i2c (i2c-1)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): no

Sorry, no sensors were detected.
Either your system has no sensors, or they are not supported, or
they are connected to an I2C or SMBus adapter that is not
supported. If you find out what chips are on your board, check
http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices for driver status.

Is the kernel missing CONFIG_THERMAL and CONFIG_HWMON modules in the default build?
I just need to see the temperature output while running multiple packages.

Any work around or advice?

hi,

nano:

I just need to see the temperature output while running multiple packages.

i recently had the same issue, check out

I was going to use your idea:

cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp

But on gv1000 (Brume) I have nothing in /sys/class/thermal to use?

how about

Appreciate the help, but that is for lm-sensors for OpenWRT which works fine on my unit.
My problem is on the Ubuntu image stock from gl.inet.

I have never do on MV1000 Ubuntu. Sorry cannot help.
