Dear Frodo, thanks for providing the lm_sensors ebuild in Gentoo.
Sometimes a module needs a parameter, such as the it87 for Asus A7V600 board, eg to define sensor types. However, nowhere is it stated how to include a parameter. After advice from Peter Ruskin on the gentoo-user list, I tried two methods that worked: putting the module with parameter in the modules.autoload/<kernel-version> file; and adding the parameter in the conf.d/sensors file as MODULE_1='it87 temp_type=0x1c' My suggestion is that instructions for adding parameters to modules are added to the text of conf.d/sensors. Maybe there is a better way - or maybe even a Gentoo-standard way of handling this type of problem? Regards, Leon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
