This issue has been bugging me lately for sure. However, I think I've found a workaround:
In the configuration file for xfce4-sensors-plugin, located at $HOME/.config/xfce4/panel/xfce4-sensors-plugin-33.rc, there is an option "Suppress_Hddtemp_Message" which accepts a boolean value. In my configuration, it was set to "False," but setting it to "True" will in fact solve the problem. I've attached a patch, although changing that one line in the file should be easy enough without the patch. Hope this helps. ** Patch added: "Patch for xfce4-sensors-plugin-33.rc" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-sensors-plugin/+bug/1003553/+attachment/3298348/+files/xfce4-sensors-plugin-hddtemp_patch.diff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1003553 Title: xfce4-sensors tries to use hddtemp even if it's missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-sensors-plugin/+bug/1003553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
