This file references a third temperature channel that the w83697hf doesn't have. It's commented out by default, but I guess you uncommented the lines (set temp3_over and set temp3_hyst), and this causes the trouble you're in. Delete these lines from your configuration file, and it should be OK. I'll do the same in our default configuration file. Strange that nobody reported the problem so far. Maybe people simply don't uncomment lines they don't need. Thanks for the report. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
