Package: smartmontools
Version: 5.33+5.34cvs20050802-4
Severity: normal

smartd reports incorrect temperatures for an EIDE hard drive:

    $ egrep "hda.*194" /var/log/daemon.log | tail -1
    Apr  8 19:36:12 billchase smartd[6495]: Device: /dev/hda, SMART Usage 
Attribute: 194 Temperature_Celsius changed from 157 to 161 

However, hddtemp is able to report a more reasonable value:

    $ hddtemp /dev/hda
    /dev/hda: HDS722525VLAT80: 34 C

According to smartctl, this appears to be the 'RAW_VALUE', while smartd
is reporting the 'VALUE':
