I searched on the Net, and according to the Wiki of arch, I should first install lm_sensors. Then, I ran sensors-detect. After doing that, I ran sensors, and got the following output: acpitz-virtual-0 Adapter: Virtual device temp1: +26.8°C (crit = +88.0°C)
radeon-pci-0100 Adapter: PCI adapter temp1: +54.5°C coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Core 0: +46.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) Core 2: +40.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +90.0°C) As you can see, the result is not complete. My laptop is dell studio 1458, and the cpu is i3. I am supposed to modify the sensors.conf to add something so as to make sensors show the rpm of my fan. But the problem is I don't know my chip's name. I guess my chip's name should be coretemp, but there is no coretemp in the conf. My final purpose is to control down the fan, and I am in wheezy. What should I do? Thanks
