This error message simply indicate that the hddtemp daemon cannot be accessed, usually because it is not running.
psensor does not use the hddtemp command but the hddtemp daemon so 'sudo hddtemp' does not prove that the hddtemp daemon is working. Please see information at http://wpitchoune.net/psensor/doc/faq.html#S_disk to enable it. Until you have verified that the hddtemp is working, I don't see any evidence of a bug. Feel free to let me know if it is the case. ** Changed in: psensor (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1394209 Title: psensor hddtemp: failed to open To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/psensor/+bug/1394209/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
