I also have the same hardware as you and the same kernel in amd64. Is this relative to lm_sensors? I never got them to work...
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. 2010/2/1 Nima Azarbayjany <i.adore.deb...@gmail.com> > Hi there, > > On a recent install of Squeeze I get a message that "setting sensor limits" > fails.
