Could you please: 1* Send the whole configuration file to me, unmodified, for me to try on my system. 2* Try installing lm_sensors 2.8.7 or newer from our sources. Download, unpack, make user, make user_install and you're done. Be sure you actually remove Mandrake's package before you do. And see if it changes anything. 3* Provide the source RPM for the Mandrake lm_sensors package, or preverably a pointer to that source RPM. I suspect that the Mandrake folks included some home made patch that would prevent me from understanding what's going on. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
