So it is not a problem :) Yes, standalone drivers need a configured kernel tree to build.

Not sure what you did exactly, but /etc/sensors.conf is not used by lm-sensors 3.x if /etc/sensors3.conf is present. /etc/sensors3.conf is always checked first, to make it possible to have both lm-sensors 2 and lm-sensors 3 installed on a given machine (although nobody should be doing this any longer.) The preferred approach these days is to leave /etc/sensors3.conf untouched, and create a dedicated configuration file for your mainboard in directory /etc/sensors.d. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
