This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need
to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe
and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions,
unless you know what you're doing.
Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no):
Module cpuid loaded successfully.
Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595... No
VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors... No
VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors... No
AMD K8 thermal sensors... No
AMD Family 10h thermal sensors... No
AMD Family 11h thermal sensors... No
AMD Family 12h and 14h thermal sensors... No
AMD Family 15h thermal sensors... Success!
(driver `k10temp')
AMD Family 15h power sensors... Success!
(driver `fam15h_power')
AMD Family 16h power sensors... No
Intel digital thermal sensor... No
Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No
VIA C7 thermal sensor... No
VIA Nano thermal sensor... No
Some Super I/O chips contain embedded sensors. We have to write to
standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe.
Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no):
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... No
Trying family `SMSC'... No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No
Trying family `ITE'... Yes
Found `ITE IT8721F/IT8758E Super IO Sensors' Success!
(address 0x290, driver `it87')
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... No
Trying family `SMSC'... No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No
Trying family `ITE'... No
Some systems (mainly servers) implement IPMI, a set of common interfaces
through which system health data may be retrieved, amongst other things.
We first try to get the information from SMBIOS. If we don't find it
there, we have to read from arbitrary I/O ports to probe for such
interfaces. This is normally safe. Do you want to scan for IPMI
interfaces? (YES/no):
Probing for `IPMI BMC KCS' at 0xca0... No
Probing for `IPMI BMC SMIC' at 0xca8... No
Some hardware monitoring chips are accessible through the ISA I/O ports.
We have to write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually
safe though. Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any
ISA slots! Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (yes/NO):
Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware
monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works
reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble
on some systems.
Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no):
Using driver `i2c-piix4' for device 0000:00:14.0: ATI Technologies Inc SB600/SB700/SB800 SMBus
Module i2c-dev loaded successfully.
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0b00 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively):
Client found at address 0x50
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1033'... No
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1034'... No
Probing for `SPD EEPROM'... Yes
(confidence 8, not a hardware monitoring chip)
Probing for `EDID EEPROM'... No
Client found at address 0x51
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1033'... No
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1034'... No
Probing for `SPD EEPROM'... Yes
(confidence 8, not a hardware monitoring chip)
Client found at address 0x52
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1033'... No
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1034'... No
Probing for `SPD EEPROM'... Yes
(confidence 8, not a hardware monitoring chip)
Client found at address 0x53
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1033'... No
Probing for `Analog Devices ADM1034'... No
Probing for `SPD EEPROM'... Yes
(confidence 8, not a hardware monitoring chip)
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `fam15h_power' (autoloaded):
* Chip `AMD Family 15h power sensors' (confidence: 9)
Driver `it87':
* ISA bus, address 0x290
Chip `ITE IT8721F/IT8758E Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)
Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded):
* Chip `AMD Family 15h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)
Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (YES/no):
Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.service to /lib/systemd/system
and run 'systemctl enable lm_sensors.service'
for initialization at boot time.

Hi
It picked up the it87, but you never restarted lm_sensors service to
load the new devices… But still didn’t grab the radeon.

I actually rebooted to see if it would add devices. It didn’t. So I went into yast -> Services Manager and enabled lm_sensors. Again rebooted (was quicker than trying to figure how to restart the correct application) and it then picked up it87. I am still concerned about the video card though. Perhaps I should just water cool it and the cpu and be done with it!
LOL, I ran water cooling on my AMD cpu for awhile ~5 years worked atreat in the summer…
It will probably be related to the sensors version, I know for my nvidia card I had to poke a few values into the /sys area… maybe a google on the pci-id and sesnors may glean some mailing list hits…
I just might do that. I notice when using fedora, where the sensor works, that card runs pretty warm. It’s a Radeon HD 7970 with a pretty large heat sink and two fans. I understand it’ll go up in flames without much provoking. I could also get rid of that huge V8 cpu cooler!

That’s what I’m thinking at this point.
Set it to low, via the radeon systemd service?
Although I don’t intentionally overclock, I spent a ton of money to “go fast”. Throttling back is always the last option considered.
BTW, the Fedora installation is a customized version that is used strictly for NetFlix. No updates, no fussing with it, it’s just there when I want to watch a movie.
