I don't think this should be a threat to your laptop, the sensors
only read temperature (and other data) they don't interfere with
the working of the CPU, hard drive or other components. I think you
have no reasons to worry.

Whoops, I managed to make two major mistakes in two short sentences:
1. The OT makes no mention of loud fans.

You would think so wouldn't you? However, I believe it's all done in

Yep. In GNU/Linux, this pretty much boils down to the thermal kernel

If you send me your laptop, I'll be glad to document it for you ;)
Seriously, I've messed around with trip points a bit, but never went as
far as to let my laptop actually take fire (for obvious
This issue has been addressed in bug #566184. I did not understand the

waiting to enter Squeeze.

Hi there,
On a recent install of Squeeze I get a message that setting sensor limits
fails. I am wondering whether this can be a threat to the hardware and if
there are any workarounds for this issue. I am running the amd64 2.6.32
kernel from testing on my HP Pavilion dv5 laptop.
Thanks.
