As Zhang Rui said, this cannot happen in reality. I'll stop talking to 
you. Kernel side, it's not your problem anyway, it's an ACPI Thermal 
Zone one. Guess I'll go ask the 2.6.26 release manager if he feels that 
breaking existing lm-sensors 2 userspace systems is acceptable. I myself 
obviously know how to fix things by now.

Admittedly I need to find another hobby because the regularity with 
which people on this list piss me off is definitely disturbing. I also 
have this depressing notion that it might just be people pissing me off 
with frightening regularity period, but oh well.

Gardening... maybe I'll do gardening now.

Rene.
