Since install I get on-liner message on boot ' Winbond region xxx already in use !' I suppose I should install it again but without the deamon
Sorry - I meant Lucid not Karmic. I uninstalled hddtemp as reconfiguring made no difference. I can still see the temps. with the disk utility (palimpsest) tool - so not essential. However if you can assure me that no damage will result from having hddtemp installed despite the 'Winbond region xxx is already in use' message I will install it again ( to make my gkrellm look professional )
Ocky, all hddtemp does is read from SMART output of the hdd, definitely no damage can be done in that, the polling is done via the BIOS.
Re: Lucid - hddtemp question OK, I trust you implicitly Have reinstalled despite very brief 'Winbond region xxx is already in use'. Changed Title of thread to read Lucid instead of Karmic. Here sshot of gkrellm.
Re: Lucid - hddtemp question You got it set, you can also reduce the default width of gkrellm in case you find it too wide, I keep mine at 65.
