Dear All,

Any ideas about the following error?

# /sbin/modprobe coretemp
FATAL: Error inserting coretemp
(/lib/modules/2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/hwmon/coretemp.ko):
No such device
# dir /lib/modules/2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/hwmon/coretemp.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/hwmon/coretemp.ko
#

Thanks in advance,

Paul

That is a good indication that it could not find the hardware the
module was looking for. You can try "/sbin/modprobe -v coretemp" to
get a (hopefully) more detailed description of what is going on.

Getting the following:

# /sbin/modprobe -v coretemp
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.25.3-18.fc9.i686/kernel/drivers/hwmon/coretemp.ko

Is your cpu Intel? If not, you don't want coretemp.

Yes, Patrick, it is an Intel Dual Core.
