Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-disk-utility

Palimpsest Disk Utility / gnome-disk-utility was working fine atleast
until 15 days ago. I often used to check my hard disk working
temperature in palimpsest.

But now it says "SMART is not available" !! SMART feature hasn't been
changed or disabled in BIOS. Other SMART applications seems to be
working fine in Windows (I have both Windows and Linux installed on my
laptop).

Its hard to guess what has changed in 15 days which has rendered
palimpsest not to work normally as it used to work. The only thing I can
think of is that I updated using update-manager a week ago (which I
usually do once in a week). I don't know whether palimpsest was updated
or any other dependent packages of palimpsest was updated; which could
have caused this problem.

Please look into this and give a solution.

Also, many people seem to have encountered this problem recently as this thread
