Description of problem: In a system with AMD X2 3800+ EE, the CPU temperature is available using the k8temp driver and correctly shown with the "sensors" command. The gnome applet, which should perform the same operation, recognizes the CPU temps in the Preferences->Sensors->libsensors list as available, but, once selected and after installing the applet, the report reads "Chip not found" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-applet-sensors-1.7.8-3.fc6.x86_64.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add the "hw sensors" applet to the Gnome Panel 2. Configure to show the CPU temps of libsensors (not ACPI, this does not seems to report the correct one) Actual results: "Chip not found" is reported Expected results: The correct temperature, as per "sensors" command, should be shown Additional info: It seems the applet is one of those packages still from fc6 and not updated to f7, whatever this could cause.
Hi, Short intro: Since Aaron Kurtz unfortunately know longer is a Fedora Contributer, I've taken over this package from him. I have a setup with a k8temp chip myself and with the latest upstream version of gnome-applet-sensors it works fine. I've build a new Fedora package of this version: gnome-applet-sensors-1.8.1-1.fc7 This package should become available in the updates-testing repository soon, when its gets pushed there the update system will add a comment to this bug that it has become available. To use / test it once available there do: yum update gnome-applet-sensors --enablerepo=updates-testing
gnome-applet-sensors-1.8.1-1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
I just tested the update today and it seems to work correctly, the temperature is shown as it should. I would close the bug.
gnome-applet-sensors-1.8.1-1.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
