--- Comment #3 from Alexey Starikovskiy <astarikovs...@suse.de> 2009-06-11 18:23:38 --- Basically, you use whole hwmon infrastructure on your own risk. The conflict you see was added exactly to prevent users from shooting their feet. Without this check hwmon will try to use SMBUS and devices connected to it (most probably temperature control IC), thus making ACPI to read garbage from these same devices. If ACPI reads critical temperature (and it often does in such situation), it will simply shut machine down. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ acpi-bugzilla mailing list acpi-bugzilla@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acpi-bugzilla
