Hardware sensors in Fienix

I am trying to get lm-sensors to work in Fienix so that I can check the temperature on my graphics card (I exchanged the cooler) but I am having some problems getting it to start.
I installed lm-sensors in synaptic but when I write sensors-detect it gives me a command not found.
Code: Select all
root@Fienix:/home/fienix# sensors-detect
bash: sensors-detect: command not found
root@Fienix:/home/fienix# sensors
No sensors found!
Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
Any suggestions to get the temperature readings?

Hi JohnFante,
Sensors works with Fienix on my X5000.
Output:
Code: Select all
radeon-pci-0100
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +42.5°C (crit = +120.0°C, hyst = +90.0°C)
Did you copy the kernel modules directory to
/lib/modules?
You can execute sensors-detect with
/usr/sbin/sensors-detect.
Cheers,
Christian

Thank you for the reply. I got a bit further with your help. Still not quite there, thou.
I got sensors-detect going with this.
It gave this adition to /etc/modules
Code: Select all
Generated by sensors-detect on Sun May 17 16:11:14 2020
# Adapter drivers
radeon
# Chip drivers
lm63
However I still get no sensors found:
Code: Select all
root@Fienix:/home/fienix# sensors
No sensors found!
Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
I am running the 5.6 kernel and have copied the 5.6.0_A-EON_X5000 folder with the modules to /lib/modules. I just opened caja as root and copied the folder over. Is that the right way? And is there a way to check if the kernel loads the modules?

Please try the following commands:

I had to go to SU and type the exact location of modprobe before I got a result. Here it is:
Code: Select all
fienix@Fienix:~$ su
Password:
root@Fienix:/home/fienix# /sbin/modprobe nfsd
root@Fienix:/home/fienix# lsmod
Module Size Used by
nfsd 142878 1
uio_pdrv_genirq 7317 0
uio 18964 1 uio_pdrv_genirq
root@Fienix:/home/fienix#
Maybe something is a bit "off" in my system since I have to write the exact paths to the different commands ... ?

Is it also possible to measure the CPU temperature of X5000? Do you have to install something for it?
