Hi
I am trying to monitor the temperatures, fan speeds and voltages on a DFI
G7V600-B motherboard.
Method 1 - envstat
envstat cannot find any sensors (the hardware monitor devices in the config
are enabled (lm0, nsclpcsio,viapm,viaenv))
Method 2 - mbmon
mbmon manages to identify the device but not all the values seem to make
sense. Below is the debug output of mbmon:
# mbmon -D
Probe Request: none
>>> Testing Reg's at SMBus <<<
[Intel8XX(ICH/ICH2/ICH3/ICH4/ICH5/ICH6), IO-Base:0x500]

Using SMBus access method[Intel8XX(ICH/ICH2/ICH3/ICH4/ICH5/ICH6)]!!
* Winbond Chip W83627HF/THF/THF-A found.
The output of mbmon is as follows:
# mbmon -r
TEMP0 : 208.0
TEMP1 : 0.0
TEMP2 : 0.0
FAN0 : 0
FAN1 : 0
FAN2 : 0
VC0 : +3.66
VC1 : +3.66
V33 : +3.66
V50P : +5.00
V12P : +11.31
V12N : +0.47
V50N : +1.69
The temperatures and fan speeds don't seem to make sense. These tests were
done using NetBSD 3.0. I would appreciate some feedback on how to improve
this data.
Many thanks.
