Works just fine here in sid (which has the same package version as lenny). I do have hddtemp installed with setuid bit so I can run it with my regular user, maybe that's a factor in the crash?
The proper way to set the setuid bit on the binary is by using 'dpkg-reconfigure hddtemp', can you try that and see if the crash still occurrs? ~David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
