Re: sensors-detect

To the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf I addedd
blacklist adt7473

but adt7473 is still in the kernel:
modprobe --list adt*
kernel/drivers/hwmon/adt7462.ko
kernel/drivers/hwmon/adt7470.ko
kernel/drivers/hwmon/adt7473.ko
kernel/drivers/hwmon/adt7475.ko

NedSlider what do you think?
