Hello again, after some assistance from Jean on this list, I determined I apparently don't need lm_sensors. So I decided to remove it from the system. Using the Package Manager, I uninstalled lm_sensors; but it also apparently removed half of my KDE environment (yum confirms the same from the CLI) removing things like 'kdeaddons' and 'kdeartwork' amongst others. I don't know what its dependancy is exactly, but it appears to have some hook somewhere into KDE. And that dependancy then removes the rest of the KDE "stuff" (Tech. Term) Consequently, I've lost half a day trying to figure out why I could no longer 'startx' successfully. This is confirmed by now groupinstall -ing KDE and lm_sensors comes along with it. WHY would a program designed to monitor low level MB, CPU and fan sensors have any dependency on a graphical desktop environment? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kind Regards Kyle
