Do you actually have (supported) sensor hardware?

If you built modules using 'make-kpkg modules-image', did you install the resulting package? If you're using sid, 'sudo debian/rules modules-nokpkg' should Just Work if you're allergic to kernel-package. If you do in fact have lm-sensors modules hiding somewhere under /lib/modules/2.4.20, then you're doing fine at this point. > but no LMXX was found. What version of lm-sensors are you using? I've had minor issues keeping sensors-detect up-to-date; the current versions in both sid and sarge should work, though. > My chipset: > > 00:07.0 ISA bridge: Acer Laboratories Inc.

I'll see if I can get the new upstream version packaged soon, maybe while I'm home sick today, but it'll probably be some time before it sees unstable since I did some black magic to produce modules for stock kernels, which means new packages in unstable, which means a manual approval wait. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
