Hi,

@mitch_de

 

This new IntelCPUMonitor work for i7 2630QM ? Because SMC Monitor not display info on the processor (Frequency and others).

 

Just i have this in kernel.log:

 

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU family 0x6, model 0x2a, stepping 0x7, cores 4, threads 8

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: Using efi

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: BusClock=99MHz FSB=399MHz

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: Platform string T9

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU0 Tjmax 100

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU1 Tjmax 100

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU2 Tjmax 100

Jan 26 16:43:25 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU3 Tjmax 100

SMC Monitor now shows my CPU temps and frequencies with the latest IntelCPUMonitor but iStat still doesn't show any temps. I have a Sandybridge i7 2600k on an ASUS P8Z68-V. Does anyone have CPU temps in iStat?

 

What you see in istat?

Incoming air?

Hi, when I install plugins fakesmc, IntelCPUMonitor and SuperIOFamily.kext... in the kernel log does not appear to me:

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement: Turbo Ratios 1144

only appear AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement: initialization complete

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementClient: ready

 

but if I remove these plugins already appears:

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement:Turbo Ratios 1144

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement: initialization complete

AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementClient: ready

someone can help me? why does this happen?

does anyone know if applying IntelCPUMonitor.kext to a Macbook Pro (i5) 2012 model would allow access to stuff like speedstep through the SMC?

 

REAL Macbook Pros DO NOT use FakeSMC, which is a prerequisite for all the plugins ...

 

So No !

Hi,

 

I'm having trouble getting IntelCPUMonitor to properly detect my CPU frequencies. I'm using the latest version from SVN.

During boot Chimera detects the following:

CPU: Brand String:			    Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU	 L7700  @ 1.80GHz
CPU: Vendor:					  0x756e6547
CPU: Family / ExtFamily:		  0x6 / 0x0
CPU: Model / ExtModel / Stepping: 0xf / 0x0 / 0xb
CPU: Number of Cores / Threads:   2 / 2
CPU: Features:				    0x0000034f
CPU: TSC Frequency:			   1795 MHz
CPU: FSB Frequency:			   179 MHz
CPU: CPU Frequency:			   1795 MHz
CPU: Minimum Bus Ratio:		   0
CPU: Maximum Bus Ratio:		   0
CPU: Current Bus Ratio:		   10

 

While IntelCPUMonitor detects:

Aug  1 20:52:30 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU family 0x6, model 0xf, stepping 0xb, cores 2, threads 2
Aug  1 20:52:30 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: Using efi
Aug  1 20:52:30 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: BusClock=179MHz FSB=718MHz
Aug  1 20:52:30 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: Platform string M75
Aug  1 20:52:30 localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: CPU Tjmax 100

 

Furthermore, I had to manually set Tjmax to 100, which is the correct value for my processor. If I left it on autodetect (0), then my laptop would reproducably freeze during boot when my cpu temperature is higher than approximately 65°C, right after displaying:

localhost kernel[0]: IntelCPUMonitor: Based on code by mercurysquad, superhai (C)2008

 

Does anybody know how I can get IntelCPUMonitor to show the correct values for my processor?
