Re: lmsensors doesn't detect core-i7 sensors

[Mahmood Naderan <nt_mahmood@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here is what I did:

mahmood@localhost:~$ svn checkout http://lm-sensors.org/svn/lm-sensors/trunk lm-sensors

...
Checked out revision 5857.
 

mahmood@localhost:~$ svn update http://lm-sensors.org/svn/lm-sensors/trunk lm-sensors
Skipped 'http://lm-sensors.org/svn/lm-sensors/trunk'
At revision 5857.
Summary of conflicts:
  Skipped paths: 1

Is that what you meant?

Pick sensors-detect from svn or file bug against lm-sensors in ubuntu and maintainer(if he is nice) update lm-sensors.
