Hi all,
I have the error message when I start conky, thought the hddtemp daemon is running and my HD defined :
Code:
# /etc/init.d/hddtemp status
 * status: started
Code:
# /usr/sbin/hddtemp /dev/sda
/dev/sda: ST31000528AS: 34°C
# /usr/sbin/hddtemp /dev/sdb
/dev/sdb: ST31000528AS: 32°C
Code:
# uname -a
Linux JANUS 2.6.37-tuxonice #6 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 12 15:50:29 CEST 2012 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

My conky config :
Code:
${color grey}Temperature /dev/sda:$color ${hddtemp /dev/sda}
${color grey}Temperature /dev/sdb:$color ${hddtemp /dev/sdb}

Any idea please ?

Well, that tells us that it's using the correct port - did you enable the 'hddtemp' use flag for conky :?:
