Package: collectd
Version: 4.8.1-2
Severity: normal

The hddtemp module seems to have some problems:

- hddtemp is installed and correctly reporting data for /dev/sda, but
  the collected data is always NaN
- If I set "TranslateDevicename false", I get two DBs: the 8-3 translated
  name *and* "/dev/sda". Both contain NaNs instead of real values.

Just for the record, the information returned by connecting to hddtemp is:

|/dev/sda|STxxxxxxxxx|35|C|

Thanks

Thanks for further digging into this and reporting back. With this
E-mail, I'm closing the bug report.

That "un-killable" instance is quite strange, though. Please open a new
bug if you manage to reproduce that somehow.

Cheers,
Sebastian
