We could indeed add an option to sensors(3), or even write a separate binary solely dedicated to reporting intrusions and clearing alarms. Opinion anyone? Meanwhile I have added an entry in the FAQ to mention the current lack of tool and the way to clear the intrusion alarm: http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/FAQ/Chapter3?version=19#HowdoIclearthechassisintrusionalarm I have also created a ticket to track this issue: http://www.lm-sensors.org/ticket/2385 -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
