[lm-sensors] HP VL400 sensors

[Abdelhamid JOUMDANE]

Hi,

I have an HP VL400 (SF : small factor). I only manager to get the fan 
speeds using the pc87360 driver.

Can anyone help me get other informations from the system (temperatures, 
voltages)?

Thank you in advance,

Yes we have driver for this chip.

Yes you can try to autodetect the sensors chips.

What you need is to install lm_sensors package on your system.
The steps neccessary to proceed differes for linux-2.4 and linux-2.6 kernels

To know if you have 2.4.x or 2.6.x kernel run following command:
uname -a

for 2.4.x:
Download i2c and lm_sensors package from our webpage or get those as packages for your distribution.
Follow instructions how to install them.

for 2.6.x
Get either linux dirstribution package or download lm_sensors archive from our download page.
(for 2.6.x compilation: make user_install is enough)

When you have package(s) installed you need to run script called:
sensors-detect
It will try to detect chips used for monitoring.

If it find only pc87360 you can try to email us full output of the detection command I may help to find out what chips
you have.

You can get output to a file by this command:
sensors-detect > /tmp/sensors_output

(you wont see anything but all you need to press y key to let the detection proceed)

If any troubles, just ask.
I hope this help.

Regards
Rudolf
