Before this patch, they were being attached to the parent device of the hwmon device being created with the call to hwmon_device_register(), and now they are attached to the device created with that call. Is that what you really want? Can userspace handle this movement of files? thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
