Just compiled the latest source from Github and installed FakeSMC with only CPUSensors plugin. Everything worked fine. Then i added GPUSensors and reboot. Got to the login screen. Immediately after logging in i got a KP with the GPUSensors as the culprit. I'm running a Gigabyte GTX670. I thought that the Nvidia code had been updated to support the GTX 6xx cards. Is that not correct?

5.1.8 version stops reading my fans - the bug is in HWMonitor not in the plugins.
EDIT: same with 5.1.9

I just want to ask what do i have to change to get HDD temperature readings? because i dont have any temp info... rest of the sensors works normal.

thx

[Dr. Hurt]

It's detecting my ambient temp as 200C !!

Is there a way to remove this line from console log?

2013.03.16. 17:50:23,000 kernel[0]: FakeSMCDevice: 0 key(s) exported from Clover EFI

I'm using chameleon so this is useless for me.

edit:
One more little question: With the newest version in iStat I got "Northbridge" temp renamed to "Mem Controller". Is there a way to rename it back to Northbridge? I managed to get proper names for CPU fan and System fan, but I didn't found any related to this "Mem Controller" string

Help me please to add necessary things to DSDT to start up the ACPISensors. I tried many things but I couldn't make  necessary DSDT.
And is it normal if I see only one frequency instead of four - CPUCorePackage?

I love this!

I have a few questions that I hope you could answer

Specs:

Motherboard: ASUS P8Z68 V-Pro Gen3
CPU: i7 2600K
GPU: ASUS Radeon 6870 1GB.

I have the latest FakeSMC and all the latest Plugins.

1. Why don't I have GPU or any other fan showing other than CPU?

2. Why does only one CPU core show up in Frequencies? I saw a few posts before me a guy had more than 1 core showing.

I wan't my HWMonitor to show GPU Fan speeds and CPU/GPU Freqs like this:



3. My CPU is at 3.8GHz(Turbo) but HWMonitor only reports 3.5GHz same with iStat Menus. MsrDumper shows 3.8GHz though.

4. Why doesn't frequencies for my GPU or RAM show up?

5. Why does 5 mainboard fans show up? Is it detecting all fan sensors I have on the board or something? I only have my CPU fan connected. Shouldnt that be named "CPU FAN"?

Can I rename it somehow?

[xpamamadeus]

Hi all.

My ACPISensors.kext dont load automatically,and if i load it manually nothing change in hwmonitor.

For what its that plugin and do i need it ?

I get all readings  only powersupply 2-3-4-5 are wrong.

I read few pages but i didnt find descriprion of these plugins.

thx.

Hi guys. Please give me your full dsdt if you have working ACPISensors.

[Maniac10]

For ACPISensors to work you need some specific DSDT additions, so if you didn't do any DSDT editing for this purpose don't install the plugin, it will add nothing.

1- Your graphics card is probably not supported, I'm not sure. Check your console log to see what the Radeon plugin says. (RadeonSensors (pci1@0): found ATI Radeon 0x68b8)
2- For newer cpus it shows a single frequency and multiplier probably because those cannot be independent so it's redundant.
3- Are you overclocking your cpu by turbo states? If you set them to 38-37-36-35 then you probably won't see the cpu reaching 38 frequently because it's for single core use only. The most used will probably be 35 and sometimes 36 or 37.
4- Not supported for the Radeon plugin yet, still hoping...
5- Yes it detects all the fan sensors and lists them, you may deactivate them by turning the little eye off in the Preferences-Menubar. I'm not sure how to rename the sensors but I guess it's in the info.plist in the LPCSensors kext.

[Alex Auditore]

I receive a little success.

			 Device (SMCD)
			 {
				 Name (_HID, "MONITOR")
				 Method (TCPU, 0, NotSerialized)
				 {
					 Store (^^EC.CTMP, Local0)
					 Return (Local0)
				 }
			 }

With this method  I got CPUHeatsink.
But I have no idea where is fan at my DSDT.
Help me fellows, please!
I know that I should add this method for fan

Method (FAN0, 0, NotSerialized)
									 {
											 Store (\_SB.PCI0.LPC.EC.[size=5][b]What should be here in my case?[/b][/size], Local0)
											 Return (Local0)
									 }

Hi !
I install new fakesmc.kext with PlugIn Kexts using KextUtility.
But KextUtility fail to make kernel cache.

Thank you for the answers!

It's working fine then, I haven't noticed before but in your screencap the GPU Temp is already there. Sadly that is all you'll see from a Radeon graphics.

Aw, alright.

Thanks for the answers, really do appreciate it

Hi to all,
Please try to keep this post without requests not directly related to HWSensors ; you should open your own thread if you have questions regarding DSDT edits. Thanks.



@ kozlek : here is my freshly updated french translation (approx. 90%) based on 5.1.57 binaries. The application works great. I wanted to change the interface for my own purpose ala Dropbox, but the .nib don't open with interface builder ; anyway.


Best regards,


Nicolas

Hello,

I have installed the I installed the 2.3.5 (4503) HWMonitor version (5.1.57.zip binary).  Is the History Graph supposed to close the monitor application after a few to 30 seconds? I have installed this on Lion 10.7.5, Bronzovka 11.4.2 kernel. Other specs:

Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5
FX-8350, factory clock speed of 4 GHz
16 GB RAM DDR3-1600
ATI FirePro V4900
Chameleon 2.1 boot loader from the 3.2 MyHack install and Chameleon 2.2 r2187 boot loader

The system log says:
[0x0--0x28028].org.hwsensors.HWMonitor[277]: terminate called throwing an exception
com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[134] ([0x0-0x28028].org.hwsensors.HWMonitor[277]): Job appears to have crashed: Abort trap: 6

This happens every time I view something for more than a few seconds.  I have the GPUSensors and LPCSensors plug-ins, HWMonitor, and FakeSMC installed.
