Re: Feature request: AMD K10 thermal sensors

Just one question: How are the lm_sensors names (10h, 11h) related to
current processors? 11h seems to be WIP.


AMD codename K10 refers to family 10h CPUs (Phenom, Phenom II). You 
can see your cpu family in /proc/cpuinfo. It's decimal there, so 10h 
will be shown as 16.

 AMD K10 sensors support has been repeatedly refused by upstream 
 lm_sensors developers because of the sensors' unreliability.
 
 e.g. Rudolf Marek said in LKML on 2009-08-28:

  the

  refuse
  the values where they don't look right. So there is no driver.

So this means there is no chance to get my thermal sensors working under
fedora?

Perhaps see if RPMFusion will carry the kmod.
