[Solved] Running sensors-detect failure

Postby eldiener » Jun 9th, '14, 18:26

After installing lm_sensors, I run sensors-detect. After answering all questions and being shown what has been detected I get the message:

"Do you want to overwrite /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors?"

I choose the default YES, only to always receive:

"Failed to issue method call: File exists"

That output comes from systemd, as sensors has already been enabled to start at system boot
