CPU and Fan sensors issue #5

Closed pentium0 closed 3 years ago

hi 5T33Z0,

thank you for the excellent EFI. no problems whatsoever to report, but one feature request.

Include the virtualSMC plugin kexts (just SMCProcessor and SMCSuperIO?), and have them listed but disabled by default in config.plist I added the kexts to the EFI folder and listed/enabled them in config.plist and all the sensors work normally.

Thanks for the feedback. I removed those plugin kexts because I recently found out they are unnecessary for monitoring temps and fan speeds. But I forgot to remove the entries fron the config as well. I will update the archive later.

I'm interested in that... They're not needed for monitoring sensors? Even with iStat Menus? Before I installed the plugin kexts I was getting no sensors at all with iStat Menus

I am using HWMonitorSMC2 and sometines Intel Power Gadget. And in those, Freqs and Temps are displayed without the extra sensor kexts. I don't know about istat menus, though since I don't use it. But I've noticed that adding back SMCProcessor and SMCSuperIO adds Fan Speed and Logic Board Monitoring. So it's up to you if you wnat to use thoase. In my case, I can hier the fans rampung up, that's my monitorng. And currents are regulated by the BIOS anyway, so whatever.
