Hi Robelix, quite often that eventually comes down to broken FW/HW. The kernel often gets quirks added to handle "just another slightly different case".
There isn't much one can do other than: - reporting to the manufacturer (usually ignored) - debuggung on your own (or by someone else owning the HW) The NCT6683 was just added in lm-sensors 2.4 (which is in Bionic), we are at 3.6 now which might be worth a try. But OTOH there seemed to be no related fixes. => https://github.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/blob/master/CHANGES#L90 The best path usually is to try the very latest software stack on not-the-latest HW. That means you could try installing a much newer Ubuntu which bings newer kernel and lm-sensors to see if things work there. The easiest start would probably be just upgrading to the HWE kernel and hoping it might already help. => https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Ubuntu_18.04_LTS_-_Bionic_Beaver Step 1 for debugging would be checking the sysfs of the kernel driver: Read: => https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/hwmon/nct6683.rst => https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface And then give it a go, is the sysfs iterface available after loading the kernel module? If not this is a kernel issue and not one in lm-sensors. ** Changed in: lm-sensors (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1858369 Title: nct6683 not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lm-sensors/+bug/1858369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
