lm-sensors reporting negative temperature

1

I get the following output when running sensors on my Ubuntu 12.04 server

$ sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:        -3.0°C  (crit = +90.0°C)
Core 1:        +5.0°C  (crit = +90.0°C)

nouveau-pci-0100
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1:        +54.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)

Obviously its incorrect, how do I fix it?

Mine is reporting +27.8 and -268.5. :/ – Veedrac – 2015-07-26T21:25:05.840

Try reducing the flow of liquid nitrogen. – Mechanical snail – 2012-07-06T06:52:17.493

I'd recommend running sensors-detect again as root. – lornix – 2012-07-06T05:45:04.870

sorry, no effect – Zeophlite – 2012-07-08T08:58:25.690

You can fix it by unloading that module. It is obviously not available/connected.

I do not know what kind of server you have, but finding ISA adapters is highly unlikely in anything produced the last 10 years.

Its an ION330 ( http://www.asrock.com/nettop/NVIDIA/ION%20330/ ) What's the nouveau-pci-0100?

I also have an ISA adapter built into my Mini-ITX-board. See my own question for details http://superuser.com/questions/731570/lm-sensors-reporting-wrong-temperature-on-intel-atom-n270

@EthanLeroy: you probably have a module that uses an emulated ISA bus or similar, on a recent Mini-ITX board I can guarantee you that it's not a physical ISA bus. – Wolph – 2014-03-21T09:25:45.977

@Wolph Maybe. But the software doesn't care if it's a real ISA bus or an emulated one. – Ethan Leroy – 2014-03-21T10:16:15.950
