>Description:
I believe, that the R5.3 acpi driver is unable to see the thermal sensors (just like 5.2-CURRENT-20040408). But power off works fine (I think, that is an acpi feature, isn't it?)...

I would prefer an acpi driver, that is able to tell me the temperatures inside my box... I am ready and able to test certain patches.
