[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#463815: xfce4-sensors-plugin: hddtemp stops detecting devices after ERROR reading floppy devices

[frank]

Package: xfce4-sensors-plugin
Version: 0.10.99.4~svn-r3775-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


After starting the plugin I recieve the errormessage from hddtemp:

ERROR: /dev/fd0: can't determine bus type (or this bus type is
unknown)

All right, ok....but my hdd with SMART support is not listet after
that error occurs.

So I decided to take a look into the Code.

I don't know if there is any floppy device with an sensor.
For me the following patch works satisfying.
