[SOLVED] Can´t get thermal readings...

[Exnor]

My xbian has been running for a few months without problems (except CEC init but that i already open a thread).

Now without touching anything in the config, the thermal readings on the information menu give me a "????" info :/.

The only thing i've installed was addons from the repos. And as far as i know none of them mess with the OS.

Any suggestions?

thks to all

Do you mean System -> System information ->Hardware -> CPU temperature?

If not, then you will need to elaborate as to what you mean.

If it is, then it's due to an upgrade you have done or changed the paths to the /opt files.

Try /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp and see if you get a sensible reading.

[mk01]

as IriDium sas try vcgencmd. XBMC should use this command specifically:

Code:

echo "$(/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp | grep -o "[0-9]\{2\}") C"

copy paste to ssh and run. if it returns value, check /home/xbian/.xbmc/userdata/advancedsettings.xml for line:

Code:

<gputempcommand>echo "$(/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp | grep -o "[0-9]\{2\}") C"</gputempcommand>
  <cputempcommand>echo "$(/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp | grep -o "[0-9]\{2\}") C"</cputempcommand>

and last question, by any chance haven't you created new XBMC profile with clean start?

Ok, yes its in the XBMC Gui " System -> System information ->Hardware -> CPU temperature"

Heres my ssh paste of the command:

root@xbian2:/home/xbian/.xbmc/userdata# echo "$(/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_te p | grep -o "[0-9]\{2\}") C"
44 C

And here is the paste of my advancedsettings.xml file:

"
<!-- zerocache -->
<advancedsettings>
<network>
<cachemembuffersize>0</cachemembuffersize>
<curlclienttimeout>45</curlclienttimeout>
</network>
<gui>
<algorithmdirtyregions>3</algorithmdirtyregions>
<nofliptimeout>0</nofliptimeout>
</gui>
<videoscanner>
<ignoreerrors>true</ignoreerrors>
</videoscanner>
</advancedsettings>
"

I dont have that lines in there...
can i put them anywhere between <advancedsettings> and </advancedsettings> ??

thks mates

EDIT:
i figured out heres my new file output:
"
<!-- zerocache -->
<advancedsettings>
<network>
<cachemembuffersize>0</cachemembuffersize>
<curlclienttimeout>45</curlclienttimeout>
</network>
<gui>
<algorithmdirtyregions>3</algorithmdirtyregions>
<nofliptimeout>0</nofliptimeout>
</gui>
<videoscanner>
<ignoreerrors>true</ignoreerrors>
</videoscanner>
<gputempcommand>echo "$(/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp | grep -o "[0-9]\{2\}") C"</gputempcommand>
<cputempcommand>echo "$(/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp | grep -o "[0-9]\{2\}") C"</cputempcommand>
</advancedsettings>
"

It works now

Thks for the help
