Hi, I wonder, if anybody ever did some monitoring on Alpha's using the lm-sensors package.
On my UP2000, there is an i2c Bus, apparently using a PCF8584 controller with a LM75 sensor, capable of doing thermal monitoring ( I hope the four fans are being monitored too ;-) I now have the i2c bus up and running, using kernel 2.4.2, but i run into some strange compile-problems wrt the lm-sensors package. Before asking specitfic questions on the compilation of lm-sensors, i want to dig a bit further. But since there is no alpha-deb of lm-sensor, I wonder if anybody ever managed to get the whole thing going on Alpha. I'd be happy to hear about it. Since the newer Alphas need *a lot* of reliable cooling and are expensive enough ( gasp, the hole in my pocket is still big after 1.5 years ;-), I would assume, that this sort of thing is of interest to other linux/alpha users as well....
