gkrellm reports cpu temp*10! linux-athlon kernel=2.6.2-rc1-mm2

[Gene Heskett]

Hi all;

I just rebooted 2 days ago to 2.6.2-rc1-mm2, and I just now noticed 
that gkrellm is reporting my cpu at 680C.  Thats about 10x what its 
running at, still warm at 68C, but functional for 2 years now.  I 
didn't have this error under 2.6.1-rc2-mm4.
 
Any idea what patch to back out?  And where to get it?

Cheers, Gene

It's part of the recent i2c changes.  Ask on the sensor's list for what
needs to be changed in gkrellm to fix this.

thanks,
