Since recent Ubuntu releases, installing the hddtemp
package is not
-enough, it is required to manually allow the hddtemp
daemon. Edit the
-file /etc/default/hddtemp
and set RUN_DAEMON
to "true"
.
Depending on the Linux distribution, the installation of the hddtemp
+package does not enable the hddtemp daemon automaticaly.
In this case, edit the file /etc/default/hddtemp
and set
+RUN_DAEMON
to "true"
like in the following example:
# hddtemp network daemon switch. If set to true, hddtemp will listen
# for incoming connections.
RUN_DAEMON="true"
For Debian/Ubuntu, you can use
dpkg-reconfigure hddtemp
+and reply yes
when asked whether hddtemp daemon must be
+run during the startup.
