OK - as suggested here, I really like having the added sensors
available in gkrellm >= 2.2.6 (2.2.7 is in Fedora development for any
FC4 users) and installing ibm-acpi 0.11. Works well, but I need to
add the module with experimental=1 and hotkey=enable,0100. Instead
of doing this the ugly way by loading manually in rc.local, I thought
I could do this the proper way in modprobe.conf with:
options ibm_acpi hotkey=enable,0100 experimental=1
- I've also tried ibm-acpi (not the underscore), and putting the
options on two separate lines, but the module always loads when first
booted without these options enabled, so the sensors aren't
available - so I have to load it manually. What's the proper way of
doing this in modprobe.conf? Or why isn't it working? I've checked
it's loading the newer ibm-acpi with modinfo, so the old one
integrated in the kernel isn't an issue.
Anyone else specifying ibm-acpi options successfully in
modprobe.conf?
