From my understanding, you can use either the kernel drivers or |
| 32 |
lm-sensors. Many years ago, I sort of got bored installing lm-sensors |
| 33 |
and running the setup stuff all the time. I seem to recall, you have to |
| 34 |
do it again when you upgrade the kernel too. Anyway, I started using |
| 35 |
the kernel drivers and I've been doing it that way ever since. Hey, it |
| 36 |
works. It also gets updated with each kernel upgrade too. |

I'm all for what works. It works for me and seems it works for you as |
| 39 |
well so, yeppie!!! Given I been battling the flu for a few weeks, |
| 40 |
yeppie is about as good as it gets right now. I never could dance |
| 41 |
anyway. ;-) |

Oh, I listed my sensor stuff because Mick listed his. I thought we |
| 44 |
could compare what we each get. It looks the same to me. I just didn't |
| 45 |
see the need in posting it twice when odds are you will see both posts |
| 46 |
anyway. :-) |
