Subject: [lm-sensors] Why would lm_sensors destroy my KDE environment?
Date: Thu, 28 Aug 2008 02:16:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48B60A6D.3010503@attitia.com> (raw)
Hello again,
after some assistance from Jean on this list, I determined I apparently
don't need lm_sensors. So I decided to remove it from the system. Using
the Package Manager, I uninstalled lm_sensors; but it also apparently
removed half of my KDE environment (yum confirms the same from the CLI)
removing things like 'kdeaddons' and 'kdeartwork' amongst others.
I don't know what its dependancy is exactly, but it appears to have some
hook somewhere into KDE. And that dependancy then removes the rest of
the KDE "stuff" (Tech. Term)
Consequently, I've lost half a day trying to figure out why I could no
longer 'startx' successfully. This is confirmed by now groupinstall -ing
KDE and lm_sensors comes along with it.
WHY would a program designed to monitor low level MB, CPU and fan
sensors have any dependency on a graphical desktop environment?
