Fedora 35: Missing Sensors and Scaled Units #56

Closed MisterGuinness closed 2 years ago

MisterGuinness commented 2 years ago

Recently I upgraded to a new machine, and with that a new board, but the Nuvoton sensors were missing. Eventually kernel updates appeared

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204807

and now I see a whole host of sensors

There are a some minor issues:

  1. Some voltages sensors (doesn't matter if real or not) are not appearing. These are voltages with a scaled unit, for me mV (millivolts)
  2. Some fans are not appearing. I realise that a zero RPM probably means no fan is connected to that sensor, but it could also mean the fan itself failed. This happened to me years ago (CPU fan clips broke, fan fell against the CPU cooler and stalled) and is the reason I started to use this extension, but never realised zero RPM fans don't appear.
  3. Similarly for temperatures, I see a new sensor reading a negative temp, whilst probably erroneous (supercomputers immersed in liquid nitrogen notwithstanding) I believe not displaying these is not the best option either.

For items 2 and 3, lm_sensors has an "ignore" config setting which would be preferable to use, so that users make an explicit choice to "hide" sensors that are not connected (or are of no interest to them). That way a known fan that drops to zero RPMs will still be visible, and I might like it highlighted in some way

Example of my sensors output:

I'll leave the highlighting of eg zero or low (whatever that is) fan RPM to another day and issue. Perhaps I can set the "min" RPM to something more realistic in sensors config file?
