dickster Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Can't seem to find anything that will read my CPU temps. Was getting shutdowns due to high temps 'cause I couldn't check them. (Needed to install a watercooler anyway) I've googled for a prog that would work in mint. The ones I've tried show system temps and even GPU temps, but not the cpu. I can check it in bios, but it isn't under load at that time. Any suggestions? Checked Gigabyte website but found nothing. Thanks. Edited February 23, 2014 by dickster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dickster Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Tried sensors, psensors, xsensors, cputemp applet, hwmonitor. Even tried Everest using wine. Nothing seems to see the cpu temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 sensors is what i use. did you run sensors-detect? what cpu and motherboard is it? see if this link helps :- http://lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickster Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Ran sensor-detect just as that link says. It's an AMD FX4100 on a Gigabyte GA 970A ud3 board. Same one we had problems getting Mint to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) can you run sensors-detect in a terminal (answer yes to everything.) and post the output in a code box here also do the same for sensors. meanwhile i'll try and see if i can find a definite answer to if that cpu is supported or not.

dickster Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 sensors-detect To load everything that is needed, add this to /etc/modules: #----cut here---- # Chip drivers it87 #----cut here---- If you have some drivers built into your kernel, the list above will contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones! Do you want to add these lines automatically to /etc/modules? (yes/NO)y Successful! Monitoring programs won't work until the needed modules are loaded. You may want to run 'service kmod start' to load them. Unloading i2c-dev... OK Unloading cpuid... OK Sensors is showing more this time then it ever did before.

terry1966 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 you didn't post the full sensors-detect output, but never mind from my understanding your chip driver is the k10temp-pci and says your cpu is running at 33c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinP526 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Just seen this the other day on Facebook page called Open Source For You https://www.facebook.com/OpenSourceForU I'm not completely certain about this program and the site it leads to loads up rather slow and doesn't seem to have a whole lot of info about it. Sounds like it's an open source clone of CPU-z called i-Nex I asked how one would go about installing/configuring and the responses I got back were saying you don't. Makes no sense to me.. maybe someone here has heard of it? http://www.efytimes.com/e1/fullnews.asp?edid=129745 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Well Justin, the simple solution to finding about about the program would be to go to their website not some facebook page or effysomething. http://i-nex.linux.pl/ Once there you find that there are installers for opensuse, fedora, and the pretend/wanna be something other then linux distro.......... http://i-nex.linux.pl/install/ I installed it on my computer and while it does provide a lot of information it doesn't tell me much more than my system already does. But it does install. Edited February 23, 2014 by Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tx Redneck Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Unc, I installed inex on my fx8120 and unless I did something wrong(kinda hard when you copy/paste in term), I'm not getting temp readings, but it shows pretty much everything else about the system.

iamgeorgeareu Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 fx8150 here on a gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5. i get cpu temps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickster Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm also getting a temp reading. Showing 40c. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Unc, I installed inex on my fx8120 and unless I did something wrong(kinda hard when you copy/paste in term), I'm not getting temp readings, but it shows pretty much everything else about the system. i'd guess the program just shows info in a nice easy layout that it gets from other places/programs so i'd install sensors then run sensors-detect answering yes to everything, then reboot and start the inex program again and if i'm correct then i think you'll find it will now show the temp readings your missing.

Tx Redneck Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) No joy Terry. Temp not shown in iNex. No biggie though, I programmed the waterblock on the H80i to change colors based on temp ranges. Edited February 24, 2014 by Tx Redneck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry1966 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 run sensors-detect and sensors in a terminal and post outputs here in code box, lets see if it detects your cpu and it's temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tx Redneck Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It did/does, but iNex doesn't. Like I said, no biggie since the waterblock led serves that purpose and its color was right in line with what sensors showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
