lm_sensors problem (I think)

Hi. I am trying to use lm_sensors to find out what my cpu temp is. I used the wiki and followed all the instructions and all that I am getting as an output is this:

$ sudo sensors
k10temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1:        +39.6°C  (high = +70.0°C)

Is this normal?

P.S. I am using an MSI 880GMA-E55 motherboard.

Re: lm_sensors problem (I think)

I just ran sensors myself, as your post intrigued me!
didn't work at first, I had to run

sensors-detect

and start the sensors modules

Re: lm_sensors problem (I think)

Thanks for the help. I get some extra info now but I don't think I am getting everything that I am supposed to. Now this is what I get.

$ sudo sensors
k10temp-pci-00c3

temp1:        +40.5°C  (high = +70.0°C)

in1:          +1.34 V  (max =  +2.04 V)
in2:          +1.11 V  
in3:          +0.86 V  
in4:          +0.67 V  
in5:          +1.27 V  
in6:          +1.51 V

temp1:        +29.0°C  (high = +255.0°C, hyst = +251.0°C)  ALARM (CRIT)
                       (crit = +255.0°C, hyst = +251.0°C)  sensor = transistor
temp2:          FAULT  (high = +255.0°C, hyst = +251.0°C)
                       (crit = +255.0°C, hyst = +251.0°C)  sensor = transistor
temp3:        +42.0°C  (high = +255.0°C, hyst = +253.0°C)  ALARM (CRIT)
                       (crit = +255.0°C, hyst = +253.0°C)  sensor = transistor

I am getting some extra info but still not getting temperature for each individual core.

Re: lm_sensors problem (I think)

Are you sure your processor is being detected as a multi-core unit? I initially only had my quad core detected as 2 until I messed around with acpi-cpufreq.

Re: lm_sensors problem (I think)

Yes because when I go into system monitor it shows all 4 cores under load. Is it possible my motherboard doesn't support temps for each core?

Re: lm_sensors problem (I think)

I wouldn't know if it's reliant on the board, or the chip(s) itself. 
My q6600 seems to show the 4 temps, seeing as the 4 cores are essentially one die, I wouldn't imagine the temps to vary very much? But I'm no expert!?

I also use

hddtemp /dev/sd*

to see the temps of my drives (SSD doesn't seem to have one?)

/dev/sda: WDC WD1001FALS-00J7B0: 42°C
/dev/sdb: WDC WD10EADS-00L5B1: 38°C
/dev/sdc: WDC WD10EADS-00L5B1: 34°C
/dev/sdd: WDC WD10EAVS-00D7B1: 43°C
/dev/sde: WDC WD10EAVS-00D7B1: 40°C
/dev/sdf: WDC WD10EAVS-00D7B1: 42°C
WARNING: Drive /dev/sdg doesn't seem to have a temperature sensor.
WARNING: This doesn't mean it hasn't got one.
WARNING: If you are sure it has one, please contact me (hddtemp@guzu.net).
WARNING: See --help, --debug and --drivebase options.
/dev/sdg: A-DATA SSD:  no sensor

/dev/sdh: WDC WD10EAVS-00D7B1: 35°C
/dev/sdi: WDC WD10EAVS-00D7B1: 40°C

Also, nvclock is useful for GPU temps

 nvclock -T
nVidia Geforce 8800GT
=> GPU temperature: 69C
=> Board temperature: 53C
nvclock -c 2 -T

nVidia Geforce 7900GT
=> GPU temperature: 67C

Anyone else care to share their results of running

sudo sensors

I'm more worried about the things labeled ALARM, I seem to have some dangerous temps and voltages and fans that arent spinning neutral
Any idea how to check powersupply sensors?? I recently had one die, and didn't notice until I smelt it...
