Bug 28137 – lm-sensors files/rc - /etc/init.d/lm_sensors - doesn't allow modules to be loaded with arguments or options in /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description chkno 2003-09-07 17:58:53 UTC]

If you add options to modules in /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors, eg: 
MODULE_0="w83781d init=0 force_subclients=0,0x2c,0x4a,0x4b" 
 
/etc/init.d/lm_sensors loads it properly, but makes red exclamation marks on unload. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add arguments to a MODULE_# line in /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors 
2. Run "/etc/init.d/lm_sensors start".  It passes. 
3. Run "/etc/init.d/lm_sensors stop".  It fails. 
Actual Results:  
 *   Removing w83781d init=0 force_subclients=0,0x2c,0x4a,0x4b...         [ !! ] 
 

Expected Results:  
 *   Removing w83781d...                                                  [ ok ]

reassigning to plasmaroo as he maintains sensors now.

Use MODULE_X_ARGS in /etc/conf.d/lm_sensors and it'll work fine. I've updated the patches in CVS, adding that message along to the explanation comments. Thanks.
