lm-sensors - always returns 32 degrees (celsius) for temperature
- by mopoke
On my VIA EPIA motherboard (using VIA VT8231 ISA bridge), I get strange output for the lm-sensors temperature reading. It always returns 32 degrees (celsius).
I have previously had correct output for temperature (my munin graphs show temperatures typically in the range of 50 to 60 degrees.
I've tried uninstalling (and purging) the lm-sensors package, have re-run sensors-detect a number of times and rebooted but nothing seems to change the output.
I am running Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.10). Anyone got any bright ideas on what I might have missed?
