Bug#334614: Support for reading temperatures from SCSI Hard Disks

[James Stark]

Package: ksensors
Version: 0.7.3-6
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,

I'm including a patch for ksensors that will allow it to read 
temperatures for SCSI hard disks.  To do this ksensors has to look in 
/sys/block for the device name instead of /proc/ide.  If it fails to 
open /sys/block it will fall back to the old behaviour.

Thanks,

James
