Description Prarit Bhargava 2010-03-09 18:10:46 UTC
Description of problem: The coretemp module outputs the cpu model number in hex, but without a preceding '0x'.  This makes the number look like a decimal number and has caused some minor confusion in the QA group.  If they got confused, then a customer certainly would be confused.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.18-191.el5


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load coretemp module on a system that does not support the coretemp module.
2. The error message outputs the cpu model number in hex, but without an '0x'.

  
Actual results:

coretemp: Unknown CPU model 17

Expected results:

coretemp: Unknown CPU model 0x17

Additional info: Upstream patch accepted.
